Default When opening pics

Hey everyone,

Just got a suggestion that I think will make the site more enjoyable. When you click on a picture i.e one of those small ones so that when you click them they become bigger, I think they should open in a different window, I know you can just right click then Open in new window but people like me are VERY lazy :P

Agreed, try using firefox to browse the forums, it's much better in my opinion
