Can someone who has had a good day tell me how one displays images "large" in the posts rather than as thumbnails?

What's wrong with thumbnails?
What's wrong with thumbnails is that until Keith told me differently, I thought you just clicked them once and that was it. I then learned that no, you can click the first blow-up again, and in the case of my own shots, it reappears marginally larger but sharper!
If you go too big, you create problems for the viewer who has to scroll, and that destroys anything.
In fact, when I edit/compose and do any cropping of my stuff, I always reduce it so that the entire shot looks no bigger than about six inches across the greater dimension - makes the whole more contained and immediate.
My face is usually about 55 - 60cms from the screen, so that gives an idea of what I find comfortable for compositional decisions. Any closer and it induces a mild panic of visual indecision.
