- I browse deviantArt from time to time and I wanted to make images display bigger, because there is so much useless whitespace on that site.
- On first glance that would be simple - remove the set dimensions of the image element and the overly conservative `srcset`.
- Because it's a react site, and will reset the style any time you resize the viewport, I use some agressive css. The site's style already includes `max-width: 100%` and `max-height: 100%`, which are also important.
- Here's the changes in userscript form
- ```
- // ==UserScript==
- // @name deviantArt expand images
- // @version 1.0
- // @grant GM_addStyle
- // @match https://www.deviantart.com/*
- // ==/UserScript==
- document.querySelector('._28lPU').removeAttribute('srcset')
- GM_addStyle(`
- ._28lPU {
- height: unset !important;
- width: unset !important;
- }
- `)
- ```
- Alternatively, just open dev tools and delete these properties manually.
- Here's a page to test on: https://www.deviantart.com/hexanity/art/Helldivers-2-Orbital-bombing-1039305812
Based on what I know about flexbox and images, this should allow the image stretch up to it's native size to fit its flexbox container.- However this doesn't happen on chrome. Image remains tiny. Works as expected in firefox.
- I tried to isolate the problem, but was unable to: https://jsfiddle.net/n9k2853c/
- There's a few things I'm looking for here:
- 1. This is a bug in chrome, right? (And is not my understanding or firefox that is broken?)
- 2. Help isolating the problem, so perhaps it can be reported.
- 3. Help finding a workaround.

Images won't fit flex container on chrome
I browse deviantArt from time to time and I wanted to make images display bigger, because there is so much useless whitespace on that site.
On first glance that would be simple - remove the set dimensions of the image element and the overly conservative `srcset`.
Because it's a react site, and will reset the style any time you resize the viewport, I use some agressive css. The site's style already includes `max-width: 100%` and `max-height: 100%`, which are also important.
Here's the changes in userscript form
```
// ==UserScript==
// @name deviantArt expand images
// @version 1.0
// @grant GM_addStyle
// @match https://www.deviantart.com/*
// ==/UserScript==
document.querySelector('._28lPU').removeAttribute('srcset')
GM_addStyle(`
._28lPU {
height: unset !important;
width: unset !important;
}
`)
```
