Then PictureLarge.xhtml would be something like:
..
<body>
<img src="images/PictureLarge.jpg" width="100%"/>
</body>
..

That's actually a great idea. Is it possible to have xhtml files that are "hidden"? Is there some way I can not include them in the "spine" part of the opf, so they will only show up when I click the image link?
