Currently we can get many different view types of BrickLink part images. Could
we get an extension of the current functionality to allow viewing large images
of individual sets, parts, and stickers in the List View?

There would be a slight additional load requirement on BrickLink's servers but
if properly managed, all this would require is an image caching server set up
to handle downloading many different large images on request.

I would find this particularly useful for browsing large decorated parts, sticker
sheets, or parts with stickers, if there had to be a limitation on what kind
of image could be downloaded as a large image, this is what I would prefer.

Cheers ...

I believe this is possible now and that this open suggestion from 2011 could
probably be closed out.
