How do i "click to enlarge"?

I have had an incredibly difficult time merely posting a photo, but discovering a way the enlarge that posted photo completely escapes me. Does anyone know how to do that once the photo is posted ?

I find it doesn't always enlarge on one click. I find a fast double click does the trick.

I usually see text that says, "click to enlarge". That is not necessary ?

Bakerman look at the photograph below...
click on the actual photograph not the text with your left mouse button and it should enlarge.
If it doesn't I can only assume it was a tiny picture to start with..

Yes, by clicking left, on the photo you posted does enlarge.
Please tell me how you got the text (in red) "Attached thumbnails CLICK TO ENLARGE" ? Where does THAT come from ? And as long as I'm asking questions, what in the world is a thumbnail ?
I apologize for being so dense . I can build a house and make a magnificent chocolate mousse but computers throw me for a loop.

A thumbnail is just a small sized photo...
about the size of half a thumb!

Back in the day of wet room photography you would make a contact sheet from all your photo negatives, nowadays in digital photography you would print a page of thumbnails for the same reason

Re: How do i "click to enlarge"?

I have attached a photo from my PC (see below).

The words "Attached Thumbnails (Click to enlarge)" automatically appear above a small version.

Left-clicking the photo will present a standalone large-size version.

Click "X" to return to the post.

Bakerman 'Click To Enlarge ' appears automatically when the 'Manage attachment' facility (which is found below a post to which you are replying ) is used to download a photograph from your PC .

If you click on and enlarge the pic before you copy and paste it, it should appear large.
