Actually, it looks like the forums already do this when mousing over the username. I'd like this existing functionality added to opponent names in Live Chess.

A quick enhancement I'd like. Avatars can be up to 100x100 but in Live Chess, they show only a tiny version. Some sites popup a full-size version of a resized avatar on mouseover. Here's an example, using only words and gravatars (not thumbnails):

Surely this can be modified to work on chess.com. Basically, when you mouse over the displayed userpic, a full-size version pops up.
