Tiny pictures - Orchid Board

mehitabel · #1 (**permalink**) 03-23-2009, 08:24 PM

Hi, all.

I've noticed sometimes the pictures people post are very tiny-- maybe an inch square. With my bifocals, I'm afraid all I can get from that is a general impression of the color, no detail.

Please understand, I am *not* complaining. People who post pictures are very kind, and I wouldnt criticize their efforts. Just wondering if there's something I'm supposed to be doing to convery it to a larger picture? Clicking the picture doesn't seem to do anything

Normally when you click on the small picture you either get a larger image, or get send to the gallery. What browser are you using? Some people have had problems clicking on pics even since the forum was updated.

Huh. You should be able to click on the photos and have them enlarge. If you're using Internet Explorer browser, maybe check and make sure that pop-ups are allowed for the Orchid Board website. That could be preventing you from opening the photos. Any moderator out there know???

Hi. Thanks for the replies. I'm using Mac Safari browser. Clicking doesn't expand the pictures.

But maybe I can check the pop-up settings and make sure I'm not blocking popups. If that works, I'll let you know.

Mehitabel, I also work with Mac Safari and Shiira, and it seems to be a problem of compatibility of the latest update of OB with these softwares (I do nothave the same problem with other Forum, or website where I can open the popup easily)

the trick: right click on the picture and open in another Tab or another window...

Ramon's right. I have a Mac too and use Safari. I hold down the shift button as I click and it automatically opens in another window.
