Picture width revisited - a sugge

Now that pictures are being resized automatically by PH (which is a good thing), would it be possible to be able to click on the picture to show it full size, either in the thread or in a new window? That way it will be possible to view some images in all their glory if I want to. Some of the image hosting companies already do this - they display the image to fill the screen, then you click on the image to show it full size that woon't fit on the screen.

Also, I remember you mentioning a picture upload service for the Gassing Station in the future, will this support thumbnails? I'm sure it would keep the bandwidth down if the poster could show a bunch of thumbnails then the viewer clicks on the ones they want to see. A personal gallery feature would be handy for this too; where the poster can upload to their gallery so when they want to post a pic they click on an 'insert picture' icon that takes them to their gallery where they click on the image they want to show. I'm sure this would help the users that aren't comfortable with putting code into their posts.

Just some suggestions for you to ponder.

Thanks Nige. Sorry I missed this post last week.

Yes, I will implement some additional features to make this operate more slickly.

Initially the upload facility offered within the forums will be to upload a picture to a post. It will automatically be sized/thumbnailed.

The gallery feature is a possibility but I'll look at that once the basic upload is in place.
