Click to Enlarge an Image

   Isn't there someway to 'click to enlarge' an image?  For instance, if you want to post an image of a chart that nobody can possibly read unless it's bigger, is there a way to do this?  I thought about posting an enlarged version elsewhere with a link, but isn't there a way just to keep it on HubPages?

      Clicking on an image used to produce this result. However the system was changed over a year ago and now it just launches an album viewer/slideshow. It would be nice to have this feature again.

      The slideshow should present a larger version of the image, so long as one's window is at full width. The slideshow won't run if there is only one image in the Hub, but we strongly recommend including at least three images in each Hub anyway!

   Can you convert the chart to the table capsule?  Or perhaps save it as a google document and put the link to the google document in your description of the picture?

   I could put the enlarged image somewhere else and link to it, but that's a real waste of a link.  I found this Hub (not mine) that is doing what I want to do.  I just can't figure out how/where to set this up in the photo module:

   But, the Hub I'm looking at doesn't use the slideshow.  It says: "Click thumbnail to view full-size".  And the image is bigger than the one in a slideshow.  How do you do the one in the Hub example?

      From what I can see, an image "scales to fit" in the slide show. The slideshow frame seems to be a constant size. So if an image is smaller, it expands and if it is bigger than the slideshow frame, it shrinks.
      To make your images as big as possible, select "full width" within a photo capsule. You can add several images within the capsule by uploading from your computer or clicking on "my photos" to select previously uploaded images. You can also choose "thumbnail" as the display style and this will display a small image for each of the files within that capsule just as in the link you describe.

         OK.  I'm going to try that and see if I can find the "thumbnail" version. 
         
         I thank all of you for your responses.
