wiskerke Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Wow the images on the zoom pages have grown! Have I been missing something? How long have they been like that? I'm pretty sure they were still small on Sunday when I set up the poll. wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 You're right, they are huuuge! This is a recent change. I wonder why they did this? It almost knocked my monitor over when I hit the preview button Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearl Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I noticed the same this morning but wasn't sure if I was going daft. Definitely new since yesterday. An improvement I think. Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Rooney Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Here's a test from me in Dumbo. It's a zoomed image on Alamy, and I'm using Safari on my iMac: Hmm, biggish -- but not that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.Chapman Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I'm seeing the larger image too. Seems like an improvement to me. Does the larger image include varying watermark placement to hinder screen-grabs and prevent automatic watermark removal that Google disclosed?

Mark The position indeed varies a bit. Not sure if this is new or just because the size of the images vary as well. The vertical images are all 1300px wide, but different height. Horizontal images are 1390px high. One of mine is 1300x1377px though: must have been a difficult decision ;-) wim edit: the watermarks on the verticals look suspiciously the same.

Craig Yates Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Has great impact, like it. This might result in us seeing less zooms show up!! Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'zoom' is registered when the initial thumbnail is clicked on,...not when the second image is clicked for the 'preview' ... This will have no effect on zoom stats km Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSnapper Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Alamy havent really changed anything...I've been downloading the 'image details' photos of all the pix i've sold for the last couple of years.....they've been at 1300x995 pixels (ie. the size of the 'preview image') for a long long time.....just the way they're *displayed* now is different km Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
