Good idea. I've just specified how the thumbnail area can be expanded to suit the window width and height.

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Wishlist => Low

** Changed in: software-center (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Triaged

** Summary changed:

- Larger screenshots with larger window?
+ Screenshots are relatively tiny in larger window

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: software-center
- 
  When using the Sofware Centre maximised with a not abnormally large
  display (I'm using a resolution of 1280x1024) then the screenshots feel
  quite small.
  
  Could the screenshots be made to scale depending on the size of the
  Sofware Centre window? (With a hard coded minimum and maximum of
  course.)
  
- I appreciate that with the addition of reviews and ratings, doing this
- could be seen to be adding even more visual clutter to the software
- centre. I just think that the screenshots would be more useful at a
- bigger size.
