Then save it as Virus.VBS

Facebook is the most famous, most used and most engaging social networking site. It always come up with new features with its users. I am noticing from Past few months that it is improving the photo viewing experience by making its photo viewer capability stronger than ever.
Recently Facebook has come up with two new features to its photo viewing Service. High resolution and full screen view of images. According to the news these features will work only on Google Chrome and Mozilla firefox browser.
Recently Facebook changed its photo viewer look similar to Google+’s  photo viewer look. we had posted that news here :-
Read here Facebook Is Borrowing Photo Viewer Look From Google Plus
According Techcrunch, Facebook has improved its sRGB color profile of images so that the colors in images will look vivid without slow down in loading.

To get the full page preview you just need to open any image in theater view and click on the the arrow where I red marked in the screenshot. As soon as you click on this you will be taken to the full photo view. You canretain previous view by pressing ESC.
Here is one privacy issue for whom who doesn’t want to share their high resolution images online. With this feature if one can see your high resolution images then He/She can also download that image in high resolution.


Use Profile Image As Facebook Chat Emoticon


There are so many social networking site on the web such as Facebook, Myspace, ibibo, Google+, So.cl (Latest social networking site from Microsoft) etc.
But among all these Facebook stands out and the best social networking site of the world. Each and every person who use internet, must be using Facebook to connect with their friends, family etc. Google+ is doing few good things too but It seems that there is everything which is used by Facebook earlier so it seems to be the copy of Facebook, But Both are good in their own way.
The competition among the social sites is going crazy and that is the reason we keep on getting so many new innovative things and technologies.  Today I am here to tell you one of the innovative implementation of Facebook and that is for FB chat.
Yes, The new thing is related to facebook chat. We can call it as
“ Facebook custom emotion”. You all already know about facebook chat and emotions such as smiley etc
So What is New in the chat emotions?
The new thing in the emotions is that you can now send your or any other’s profile image to anyone via chat as emotion.
How to achieve it?
Its very simple to get it by following these steps:-
Just Go to your profile or any other profile or any official page you want to use as an emotion.
See the url and copy the username or if there is no username specified then copy the profile id. For example http://www.facebook.com/techtrickssworld. From this url you need to copy techtrickssworld.
Just paste this in chat window within double brackets such as [[techtrickssworld]] and send it to your friend then the profile id associated with the username or profile id will show in chat box. Here In this case I choose the fan page name and Now I have tried with my frnds profile id and that is atish.ranjan. See the image below. (I took this from here http://www.facebook.com/atish.ranjan)

 After Hitting Enter The code interprets the profile images:-



This will show only on web pages. If you will access chat from your phone or facebook apps then image emotion will not be displayed and instead of this the normal bracketed text will display as[[techtrickssworld]]. However You can send such emotions from any mobile or FB apps But it will display only on webpages.
One more thing this image emotion workes only in chat window. You cannot use it in comments, status update or wall posts. So just Enjoy chatting with your custom emotions.
