About the image tag

Adrien   November 30th, 2010 7:38a.m.

The img: tag is a nice feature, however sometimes the images are too small (50px) to see what's in them.
Wouldn't it be possible to display a larger version of the image on mouseover ?

I think it's fine, you'll be surprised how much you can fit in as long as you use landscape images. A bit unnecessary, but recently I've been loading stuff up in photoshop and shrinking/cropping to 140*50. It then looks deceptively big...

That would be a bit tricky with all the crazy mouseover stuff going on in that area already. I would second Byzanti's suggestion to use landscaped images.
