How to enlarge an avatar

Recommended Posts

Am I the first to notice this trick?

If you put your mouse over someone's avitar picture, and they haven't shrunk it to exactly fit the little box you see in a profile, right click and open the file in a new window....the avitar opens in a new browser window and -walla-! It's back to it's original 'larger' form!

About 50% of the ones I've tried so far have enlarged nicely. The other 1/2...well....remain small.

Neat, huh! :)

I haven't been able to find one yet...hmmm...are you sure this isn't a special Lori-only trick? :P
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

I'm sure you'll recognize THIS one.

Compare it to the regular avitar. They're one and the same. :P

Nope, I can do it, too, with some of the pics. Actually, "click on" or take my pic and place it on your desktop first. Then, "click" it. My picture should enlarge. :)


That way works, neat. Lori's way I couldn't do it... hmmm... :S:P;)

Mine doesn't work. That way my stalkers can't use it as wallpaper. :P

don't know about that right click-open in new window stuff. But if you just left click, and drag it into your web-browser's address bar, it should work.

What is your avitar picture? Can't make anything out of it.



Dude...I'm worried about you. Look carefully. Relax. I love her avatar...

Yes, THAT worked for me. When I tried the "right click" thing, the option to "open in new browser window" was grayed-out and unavailable to choose. I never knew about dragging to the browser bar. Thanks.
