    Try right clicking and then clicking "Open link in new tab".

    I've checked all the picture posts, I get the pop up, normaly I just click the pic to enlarge, but today its not working! I'm not so PC smart. All else seems to work fine.
     
  8. Right click the photo then click "properties" and check the pixel dimensions. Sometimes, by coincidence, the pic will enlarge but only by a couple pixels on each side. You'll barely notice the difference in the browser window.

    Also try holding the Ctrl button and rolling the scroll wheel on your mouse. This may enlarge the pic over 100% but the quality will deteriorate somewhat.

    ETA: Ahh...you're clicking on photo links in the forums. Do you have a pop-up blocker installed, or have you changed the settings for it recently?
