I hate having to open a seperate tab for pictures. I like having the text and the referenced picture on the same screen, so I can quickly look at the relevant detail while reading. But that's a matter of taste though...

I actually agree with you, but the problem arises when the picture forces you to scroll horizontally, so which is better? Having to open another tab for the picture, and keeping the text formatted correctly, or having the picture and text together but having to scroll?

Kylearan, you use the Opera browser, right? Hit Ctrl-F11. That forces any web page to compress to the width of the browser window, shrinking large images if required. Best way for us 1024-res peons to handle screenshots from the 1600x1200 aristocrats. wink

Out of these two options I'd choose the "another tab" option, yes. But I'd favor the optimal solution: Cropped or resized pictures. wink

P.S.: Looks like LKendter is no longer actively browsing this forum...he was complaining about this issue a lot. smile

Nope: Firefox, which until recently was lighter and faster than Opera.

Neat! Looks like I have to take a look at the current Opera browser, I hear lots of good things about it (haven't used it for ages!). (First I should take a look at Firefox' new features, in case it can do this too...)
