Annoying image resizing feature.

    I am trying to edit an image, but when I click the image in order for the "edit image" icon to appear this does not happen. Instead, an incredibly annoying feature that resizes the image comes up. To describe it, the cursor turns into an arrow pointing in a downward right direction and just moving the mouse causes the image to resize. What I want to do is edit the image and change the caption, but I cant seem to do this. Even when the "edit image" icon comes up, clicking it does not bring up the appropriate screen.

    I am posting images from Amazon to be specific, linking to books that I am currently reading.

    This is an incredibly frustrating problem and I hope that you can fix it.

    I am using Safari version 5.1.7

    I also tried with Chrome 21.0.1180.89

    Both of these are up to date so far as I know.

    Thanks for the heads up. I'll keep up with that thread and hopefully WordPress manages to do something about this.

    There's a new recommendation over there.
