It depends on whether your browser image rendering setting is set to "shrink to fit" or "scroll large images."

If it is shrinking to fit, text on a saved image may shrink too small for the display resolution on the screen you have.

Nope, that won't do any good. Normal image attachments on DaniWeb open over top of the page using some sort of AJAX/Javascript and gets scaled through that (I don't really know or care to know the details of how it works), rendering any "scroll large images" option on your browser useless.

You're right, I remember.
But my point is that the beautifull and simple guide to using code-tags (by Aia in the C-forum) will be unreadable for 50%(?) of the people I send there. And I'm not going to say:
"Here a guide to code tags, just read the thread, then open every picture in a new tab (right click in IE or middle in FF)". If they weren't smart enough to use code tags, they aren't smart enough to do this.

And newer. I just got this Centrino Core Duo T7250 @2x2GHz a month ago.

I'm using IE7 on Vista. Opening the image in a new tab doesn't help anything because the image is still unreadable. And clicking with middle wheel is the same as clicking with left button.
