Enable Image Resizing in Opera
If you ever wanted to have an Internet Explorer like functionality in Opera, here is how:
Open high resolution image (sample)
Click on “Fit to Width” icon (can be found under “View”, in the bottom right corner)
Done.

hmm..
i always thought that IE/ff image autoscalling made sure, that entire image is not cropped.
enabling ‘fit to width’ for a tall image will not prevent it from being cropped from the bottom
so this is not the same functionality, rather a poor’s man version of it
It isn’t perfect but avoiding horizontal scrollbars is much better than nothing.
There are other way to do what you want, you can find it here:

I use userJS – Dynamic image sizer: http://extendopera.org/sites/default/files/userjs/imagesize_12.js
Or userJS – Enhanced Image Sizer: http://extendopera.org/sites/default/files/userjs/dp_nhcd-img-szr_5.js
Fit to width was introduced in 2004 & its been a favourite of mine since then.
Add in the smooth scrolling of Opera & the smooth – + resizing & its all i need with my 26″ monitor. Loading the sample image & using fit to width loaded all the image no scroll bars.

O_o Why ? Hold ctrl scroll mouse wheel o_O
Sometimes the image is too big.
yeah , I am not happy with my monitor size.
btw anybody know how I make Opera default browser on Ubuntu 10.04 ?
I am new to Ubuntu ( my 3 rd day of using Ubuntu , I made network buffer size 128 and now it can handle me opening heavy sites , default is 64 in Ubuntu and in Vista is 128 ) ,I am wondering why , any ideas for this reason ? )
so guide me through step by step please ..
daddylo.
System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications. You should figure it out from there. :-)
I think Opera may not have this feature because it is bad about resizing.
