FAQs

Q: Why isn’t the zoom effect very noticeable for my images?

A: The original image size must be large enough to support zoom. For example, if the image is displayed at 500 x 500 pixels in lightbox view and the original image uploaded is 500 x 500 pixels, when using zoom there will be no noticeable zoom effect on the image. However, if the image is displayed at 500 x 500 pixels in lightbox view and the original image uploaded is 1000 x 1000 pixels, when using zoom the image will be magnified by 2x. These same principles are applied if zoom is enabled for the gallery view.
