[QUOTE="foxpup, post: 304628, member: 22939"] Paranoid Delusion, Thanx for the reply. I do understand how a 16x16 icon would look ugly zoomed up to full screen, but I still think that zooming up would be a good feature. There are users out there including myself with 1920x1200 screens with dpi well above the old standard 72dpi. My laptop has a native dpi of 147dpi. Even 1024*768 images seem small there and tired eyes could benefit from using all the screen real estate. If you are worried about the ugliness of blowing up a 16x16 icon, consider adding a resolution threshold control such as "maximum zoom ratio" instead of a checkbox turning zoom on and off. That way the user could set it to something reasonable like 2 or 3 and have 1024x768 images blown up to full screen on larger displays but still only show the 16x16 icons at 48x48 which wouldn't be quite so ugly. The setting could be set at 1 as it is now or set to infinity in case you want to see the ugliness of a 16x16 icon at full screen. Anyway I've spoken my peace. I really do appreciate your effort.
