Images not scaling to the screen size

When I click on a thumbnail image in a gallery I recently re-made, the image remains small-ish instead of expanding to scale to the screen size of the computer I'm viewing them on. I noticed that this happened once or twice in previous versions of the skin and would be fixed in updates. I'm using the 6.92 version of the skin. It works fantastically (like usual) and I very much enjoy it...except for this current hiccup. Is there a setting I can change to resolve this?

Here's a link to a piece of my gallery showing the behavior: http://cemeteries.picturesofus.net/Dulaney%20Valley%20Memorial%20Gardens/Animals/index.html

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide

Turn off Settings > Images > Advanced > HiDPI Images (the HiDPI thumbnails are OK).

Oh snap! That did the trick! Thank you so much. I'll have to uncheck that setting in any of my other galleries where it's enabled.

Much appreciated.

Well, it should work properly, but with lightbox scripts, it can be very tricky to get it right. Laza will probably want to tinker with it a bit.

I'm not sure it's worth the extra file size, however. Even on a large, hi-density monitor, I suspect most visitors wouldn't be able to tell the difference. The HiDPI thumbnails, on the other hand, often look much better, simply because thumbnails are fairly small to start with. Doubling up on the pixels helps, and the added file size is minimal.
