Pictures Opening In A New Tab And Bigger

So, I have been following the directions in the training and visiting people's sites and giving comments on and off their sites, and they have been doing the same for me. One thing I notice a lot is a lack of extra attention to all the great pictures people have.

I went to a lot of effort to size my pics kind of medium sized for my pages/posts. But then a lot of extra effort to ensure that, if somebody clicks on the picture, they get a bigger version of it. And also so that it opens in a new tab so they don't have to hit the "back" button to get back to where they were. They can just X out that tab.

After you post your pictures on your page or post, then click on each one and you will get an edit pencil which brings you into a new dialogue box. In there is a drop-down list that lets you tell it to link to "Media" --which will be the original bigger size of the photo you posted--and farther down in the same dialogue box is a check-box that lets you tell it to open in a new tab (that one is near the bottom). I think both are very important. I mean, if it is about baking, like mine, or travel, it is important. Not so important with some other topics.
