firefox automatically rescales pictures to fit my display. However, I generally prefer the pictures to be full size, unless they are way too big. I have a big screen and prefer to take advantage of the large amount of available real estate.

Set the pref browser.enable_automatic_image_resizing to false on the about:config page.

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Thanks.

I couldn't remember how to do this, since, the last time I set up a copy of Fox was a couple of years ago. Then I tried setting Fox up on my desktop and was getting annoyed with the resizing.

Have a good day...err afternoon.
