Forum:Image Pop-Up instead of File Page

Since a while, when you click uploaded images embedded in pages, they now popup in a window with a (yet another) thumbnail of the image alike to the login pop-up, which is quite annoying once you got used to getting directly linked to files and their history, even more so since this happens for images of all sizes that are being displayed - not only non-full size images.

I can understand that it may be of use to display a larger thumbnail pop-up for large, thumbnailed images instead of directly linking to the file page, but this shouldn't be done for any image which is already displayed without being resized in any way.  ( C rynsos Talk 10:02, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I am also looking for a way to disable those image popups. They are very annoying for editors as is the new useless followed pages feature that doesn't tell what and when something was changed. Since the last wikia upgrade it's also no longer possible to login without JavaScript because the input boxes are not visible. Wikia sems to have delevoped a featuritis in the last couple of months. Sometimes less is more! Faern. 20:53, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
