What I don't understand: These as posted don't display fully; nor does my cursor change when I roll over them, so I wasn't expecting anything to happen when I clicked on them. And I hate clicking on pics and being sent to another site to view. Long story short, I clicked on each one, and they quickly expanded to full size right here on the page, and they look great. Whatever you did, I give a "thumbs up."

I was wondering if anyone else is having a problem viewing certain photos? Some are too large for me to see all of the image and the right third seems cropped off. Left clicking images usually works on those with sliders but those without are still cropped. Ok, if the item is hosted I can click through to the host, but not all of them are. I've tried a different browser but I can't pin down why this is happening unless the posted images are just too large. Any thoughts?

Thanks Alan,

I have actually reduced my images further to a maximum of 600 pixels and this seem to be the optimum setting....at least using the "paint" editing software.

Hi johnboy,

I have taken a screen grab of a picture that Nick posted of his 'Grit Spreader'. The original size is huge and you simply can't see all of it, so I guess this is the problem you are describing, yeh!

If you happen to be using 'Google Chrome' as your default browser, you can click the top right box of lines and then reduce the size of your screen for those large images. Once they are at a reasonable size, use the 'Print Screen' key to save the image at that reduced size and open up 'Paint' so you can 'save as' whatever title you want and depending on how your PC is set up, it will go into your pictures folder.

Cheers,
GHOSTHUNTER.

Thanks GH! I tested this with Chrome and the IE View/Zoom function and it's a decent workround. I've just got to get used to some extra clicks.
