CORGI 256 VW 1200 East African Safari : a risky encounter

hahahahaha ....I agree

Is it just me or are all the pictures in boxes much smaller than the photos? It's hard to get an idea of the fullness of the subject when I can only see one-tenth at a time. Despite that, I can see that the VW is in excellent condition. Sha,me about the missing 1, but I notice the decal on the front is a bit dodgy too. Perhaps some repro are in order. Do you go in for that sort of thing or is it strictly original for your collection?

Bernie press your control key on your keyboard and scroll out with your mouse to see the whole image.

That only reduces the size of the display, the pictures are still too large for their windows.

Hi there Bernie, what happens to the pictures if you minimize the forum page and then drag one of the pictures over onto your desktop, when its there, do your normal double-click to open it and let me know what you see, full or half the picture.

Well that's a bit of a trick question, as my browser pages are either full screen or an icon on the task bar. But I understand what you're aiming for. When I drag the pic to my desktop, it becomes an icon. When I open the pic, it maximizes to fit the screen as it should. Clicking on "information", I see that the pic is 998 x 1096 at 72dpi, way too big for the forum to handle. It should have been resized. It's 35.2 x 38.7 cm, bigger than your average home photo frame.

We do have members who post pictures to the forum in a large file size, probably the original size, with no re-sizing and as you have found out, part of the picture is cropped because this forum does not have auto re-size facility.

I do like trick questions but that one was not intended to be one, and the purpose of making the forum page smaller, is just so you can see your desktop for the purpose of dragging a picture onto it from the form's page, that's all and yes, without any adjustment, it will click open to fill your screen. If then the picture is still cropped causing part of the model to be missing, that is the fault of the photographer and can not be fixed in post editing.
