Description:
When using the zoom function in ProofreadPage, it is apparent that it is not actually zooming in to the image's full resolution. The image will start to become blurred and unreadable in the ProofreadPage side-by-side view before it is at actual size. Compare http://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page:Historical_Sketch_of_the_Rebellion._Published_at_the_Office_of_the_U.S._Coast_Survey,_A._D._Bache,_-_NARA_-_305799.jpg&action=edit when zoomed in a few times with the image at full size: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/05/Historical_Sketch_of_the_Rebellion._Published_at_the_Office_of_the_U.S._Coast_Survey%2C_A._D._Bache%2C_-_NARA_-_305799.jpg.
ProofreadPage should not be using lower-resolution images since its purpose is to allow users to transcribe often difficult texts, where zooming in on a part of the image at the fullest resolution is often necessary.
