Zoom Pop-up

dwterry

I love the support that smugmug provides for blogging via the Share This Photo link. I had a thought for an addition just now and thought I'd share.

Right now I use the links that allow a user to click an image and jump over to my web site to see a larger version of the picture. I like that a lot (and it drives traffic to my website). Great idea. But.....

Sometimes it feels disruptive to send the user over to my web site. WHAT IF you provided blog embeddable code that, when the image is clicked, would display a larger version of the image right on the page? A "zoom pop-up". I'm guessing it would require HTML5 code?

Anyway ... having the option to either method would be great. Keep the link to website when that's what we want and provide a zoom pop-up for other times.

Try something like this to pop up large size photo from your blog.
