The problem with Pinterest profile pictures

When you try to view someone’s profile picture on Pinterest, you might right-click on it and select “Open image in new tab”.

However, the image that opens is only a small thumbnail, not the full-resolution profile picture.

Viewing full-size profile pictures

Enhanced Image Viewer solves this issue. With the extension installed, right-clicking on a profile picture and selecting “Open image in new tab” will display the full-resolution version.

The extension also gives you the option to view the image in the same tab using an overlay.
