  I got this from another Y-group:

  Hi all, Possibly some among yours noticed yet Yahoo's idea to
  charge people for viewing full size versions of pics in Yahoo
  briefcases. Since a while it was impossible to hit the link of
  fullsize pics in briefcases and NOW actually we got the same
  problem in a lot (all ??) of groups.

  You can test it out for example in our photos section with the
  xxxxxxxx pics (xxxxxx albums). You will get only the screen size
  version !

  Now to the important thing for our group members...

  There is a way to to sidestep this problem:

  Hit on the pic which you want to see and the screenversion
  comes up.

  Copy this line ---> &.hires=t

  Click in your browser's address bar behind the last letters
  (...view=t) and paste the line into. Then hit your Enter key and the
  high resolution pic comes up.

  I'm aware that this way is associated with a bit work using the
  copy and paste functions but it is at moment the only way to
  reach full size pics without paying for that service.

  Hope that is a little help for you (who like to view great works in
  low resolutions *grin* ^__^ )

  I've tried this in several groups and it works!!! Good luck and
  happy viewing,

  The fix works very well (so far). I've tried it myself.
