This new photo re-sizing...

[~firefly~]

...am I the only one who can't stand it?

I used to enjoy reading through the threads and seeing all the photos at proper sizes. Now they are resized so small I can't really see them properly. It's particularly annoying on journals where there maybe lots of photos. In the POTM, APOTM, and TOTM threads it is also a disadvantage.

Thoughts? Please do point out whatever advantage the current set-up provides as I cannot see it. (it's too small)

If you click on the photo, they will open up larger on a new tab on your web bouser.

Oh I know that - but before, I didn't have to click on every single photo to view it in its proper size. Having to click on each photo is an additional task for the viewer. (and actually - it opens in a new window even smaller - only when you close that window do you get the scrolling pop up photo thing). Do you know what I mean?

No, you are not the only one. I don't like the new size of pictures in the posts either. You shouldn't have to click to enlarge a picture in a photo related part of the forum like the competitions or judge my photo. It also makes my birthday wishes posts look stupid with the tiny pictures, more stupid than I intend.

Can you please show me an example of what you are refering to. images should not be resized when post unless they are bigger than the layout.

[Cliff]

William, a few good examples can be found in the comp voting threads in chatterbox section of the forum

Let me know if you need a screenshot - happy to post one if neccessary.

Is that better

[~firefly~]

Wow! Yes! That's brilliant - thanks!

I just looked at the photos in the comp threads and it appears that some of them have been cut off - like maybe a third?
