Thank you, thank you, thank you.
If you were here I would hug your neck.
I use FireFox and I normally have the Menu Bar hidden because I don't use it often and just totally forgot about the View section. Slapping forehead here. I don't get a % choice but I get "zoom out" option. It took several "zoom outs" to get the images to finally show up in total but I got there. Of course the text is tiny...so I went back up to the forum "Bigger text" thing and made the text bigger and I am all set. I don't need a magnifying glass for the text and I can save a step with the right click thing no longer needed. I checked a couple of my other websites I go to and no change in them.
I am good to go now.
Thank you so much.

I just wish the aliens would quit leaving my SD card in the computer.

If you're using FireFox, install the ImageZoom add-on, and you can resize an image while viewing with right mouse - scroll wheel.

Without ImageZoom, just use the ctrl-scroll Rosie mentioned, but that resizes text in addition to the image.

Ctrl-+ and - also resize the whole window. Ctrl-= restores to normal size.

You know I never had this problem until just a couple of months ago. I wonder if my update on FireFox changed a prior setting with the zoom thing that I don't remember doing but very well could have.
Maybe changed to a default or something??.
Anyhow, I am good now. Been to the wiki on the web and I can read it easily without my glasses so changing the zoom doesn't seem to have created any problems with other websites.

I am a happy camper and I guess I should thank the aliens for visiting me or else I wouldn't have thought to offer this discussion with my reports and get it out in the open so that someone could point me to a real easy fix. I would have just kept on right clicking the mouse and choosing "view image". Not a lot of work but one unnecessary step that I can now avoid.

Try holding the Ctrl button and moving the center wheel on your mouse. May be able to re-size the window that way to see everything needed.

Hi all,

Another option that might suit is that you set a virtual screen size. You can often (but not always!) set your screen resolution to much bigger than is physically available by delving deeply into your display settings tabs. You then view the hidden, "off-screen" areas by moving your mouse that way and the entire screen scrolls accordingly. It is a common trick on better netbooks to let you imitate having a big screen, and although it sounds clumsy it actually works very well. So you then avoid any back and forth zooming issues etc.

Cheers,
Nods
