Subject: Uploaded Images not showing larger versions..?
So, I've uploaded a few pictures onto my blog and when they're clicked
on, nothing happens. The original images from my PC are pretty large
and I'd expect users to be able to click on them on my blog and have a
larger version pop up.

Did I upload them wrong? Is there a setting I didn't click?
If it helps, I uploaded all my images as medium sized.

thanks for the help.

Sometimes, the ones you move loose their link: it's a common problem.
Try a different method, like cut and paste.

I have two methods to restore the clickablity. One uses Compose and
two browser windows, and the other working directly in Edit Html.

Thanks so much TED.
I can't believe how simple it was to change the html coding. Plus, I'm
thrilled to see my photos in full size now.

Just out of curiosity, is there any way to do this with video? Just
change the size that it appears on the blog, because my two videos are
kind of small. If not, that's ok. I can always re-upload those two
without a problem.

Thanks again! Hopefully you have something on the videos as well :]

I don't have a solution for videos: I don't use any and don't watch
many.

However,

How would I do it?

Videos tend to play in-place, and I believe that many videos can be
embedded at sizes larger than supported by most blogs.

So, I would think about setting up a second video-only blog, maybe
with a stretch template, that allows larger sizes. Post the video
there, as well as the main blog, but in a larger size.

Then work out how to link to it. Maybe a direct link, so the main blog
shows something, maybe a still/screen capture, but actually links to
the post in the big blog for viewing. Or, maybe let the video run at
the smaller size and provide a text link under or above it with
"Larger version", so people can see the larger one if desired.

Of course, that's hypothetical, there are things that would want to be
ironed out, like the upload, and the click, but that's the direction I
would take.
