I'm glad I'm not the only one, Kitty. :-) :-)

Ann, I didn't think of enlarging the whole screen - I was trying to do what I do with my photos i.e. double click on them and they then fill the screen.

Hold the Ctrl key down and keep pressing the + key to enlarge as big as you want. Then press the Ctrl key and - to reduce the size back afterwards. :-)

Oh and I forgot to say my avatar is a picture of 2 of the many donkeys we spotted in the New Forest a few weeks ago :-D

Kay, are you using Internet Explorer? I seem to remember that had View at the top.

I use Google Chrome and don't have those headings.

Also, I'm probably being stupid, but bottom right hand corner of what? :-S :-S

Kay????

I like looking at the various avatars - many of them are interesting/amusing and I often wish I could zoom in on them.

My favourites at the moment are Persie's washing label and best of all, GlasgowLass's cartoon of the Scottish Commonwealth Games uniform. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
