Ive been checking out sites like smugmug, that gives the ability to sell prints at a profit. One of them has the ability to zoom in on a picture and I thought this feature would be good for smugmug to offer.

Over on the other site thats meant for selling pictures, they give the user the ability to zoom in on a picture, for example to get a good look at people's facial expressions, or to see if the eyes are closed, and at least according to that site, this helps boost sales.

If someone from smugmug wants a link to the site that offers this, just let m know. Once again I presume you dont want a link on your forum to competition. :0)

Go ahead and link to anywhere you would like, competition does not scare me ;) At any rate, I have some code that does zoom, it was my first attempt at the crop tool we use now. Instead of resizing the crop box, you zoomed the image. Not sure where it fits into the UI though; is it a choice we give in the shopping cart, or down below next to the share buttons?
