I know, there is another topic with the same name. However, this "problem" is not solved yet.

The image continues as big as before, but it is shrinked by browser. I mean, the image sent to browser is still 2616x1864, with 463KB. An image of 240x170 occupies only 20KB.

The solution should be something like this:
<a href="bigversion.jpg"><img src="smallversion.jpg"></a>

This is important because saves your bandwidth and makes the page open faster, specially on slow (dial-up?) connections.

The same advice applies to Programming Challenges photo, and also images from http://www.programming-challenges.com.

I hope this post helps. Thanks.

I second this one, that "feature" has been so annoying.
