    Hi, I searched for this but couldn't find it...is there a way to enlarge someone's avatar? Some of them are worth a close up look!

    Did you want to crop/enlarge a picture (for use as your avatar)?
    Or did you want to enlarge/view someone else's?

    Just thought it'd be cool if you could click on an avatar and it would enlarge for viewing, like with the pix in photo gallery...or alternatively, but less convenient, if you could go to the person's info and see a larger version there.

    The control /scroll works on a PC also to zoom, but the pixels zoom too, unlike clicking on a picture to enlarge it. Thanks though. (Try clicking on a gallery picture to see what I mean -- it gets bigger and the resolution is better).

    It's not really all that good a story - they're just two friends;) of mine that I used to go climbing with. We were up in Tahoe for the week this one time and there was lots of snow, a hot tub, plenty of tequila...you know, all the stuff you need for a good snowboarding trip! Maybe i'll dig up some of the other pics from that trip some time...it was a fun trip!:beer:
    Jesse keeps bugging me to post this one full-sized, but if he only knew...
