This would most certainly be useful! For example, try reading the text on the image on this page: http://cyclods.wikidot.com/skin:take-me-to-the-hospital
You can read it, but it's very, very small. Being able to view the image at it's original size as part of the lightbox effect would be great.
@Wikidot: Is this possible?

You can do this, but I think it's a bug right now that allows it (or an error in documentation). See my post on this over on the communtiy:

Thanks for posting that link, I didn't see that post earlier though I have seen that thread…
Unfortunately, in my case, I need to show all images on the page and there is no way for me to know what the filenames will be :(
Might help cold_blood3d though.

Neat, I didn't know that. Thanks. But of course it defeats the whole purpose of a convenient automatically created gallery.
What I hate is how viewing images is often an inconvenience for some people. With an auto-generated gallery, the images always open up in the same window. So (unless someone knows to ctrl+click), they have to go back and forth endlessly.
Please see 163
I think we have all now seen the types of image browsers used by Facebook and Google+. They are screen overlays that adjust automatically to take up all the available room and definitely the nicest way to browse a gallery. I don't care about all the other image stuff. Just a way to browse images in full-size would be good.
Yes I agree. I would like to be able to use a lightbox for single images uploaded via dataforms. The gallery module can't be used due to the way that Wikidot saves an uploaded image to its own page. I did think of adding a new wish but this one seems to cover it, so +1 from me.

I was wondering if there has been any update on this wish. Maybe there is some sort of open source code already existing that Wikidot could leverage? Fit-to-screen photo browsing galleries seem to the standard most of the social/photo sharing sites. I think a common approach is for websites to automatically generate a resized version of the file any time the window is resized. That way it displays a compatible resolution file while conserving bandwidth and load times. If you need the original, there is often a link to download the original (non-resized) file.

A few years have gone by. Checking in again.
My request is to let the original full size image be available in the pop up. All browsers now do a proper scaling/downsizing of the image if it's too big (years ago they might look pixely). Any adjustments to the viewport could easily be made with CSS. We are now in the age of 4k and beyond monitors where capping this at the "medium" size makes no sense.
All the functionality already exists…this is just to enable seeing the original image size. I don't think this should be a hard change?
Please let me know.
Yeah, its 2020 now… can't believe there haven't been any responses about this! I need the gallery thumbnail to open the full-size image.
