We’ve all experienced it. You’re browsing through the internet and you chance upon what looks like a nice picture. There’s just one problem. You can hardly see the details in the picture because it’s too small.
If you’re using Firefox, there’s a nifty little plugin that can help you out. It’s called Image Zoom and it does just that; zooms in on images. This tool may be small but it’s power packed in my opinion.

To begin with, you can change the size of any image from 10% to 400% of it’s original size. So, you can not only make an image bigger but also you can minimize a big image to fit in a particular size. Besides this, you have a custom zoom option, if you’re partial to a particular size. Another neat feature is the ability to enlarge an image to fit in a page, which is great for checking out details.
Access to Image Zoom is easy since the extension is one of the options when you right click an image. I won’t say Image Zoom is perfect. Enlarging an image doesn’t necessarily mean the image will be clearer, especially if the image was grainy to begin with. Still, this is one extension that’s worth having around as it’s really handy.
Have you heard of Image Zoom before? Do you know of any other ways to enlarge images in your browser itself.
