Hi. Thanks for your bug report. We need a bit more information about your bug to ensure that this bug report will be as useful as possible to those who might want to fix this bug.
Could you tell us:
-What version of KDE 4 and Konqueror you are using?
-In a step by step manner, how could we reproduce this bug? Do you mean that when you are using an "Open File" dialog when uploading a picture to somewhere like Photobucket or Imageshack that you cannot preview the image?

[Wesley Velroij (velroy1)]

version 4.0.3 and i am using kde 4.0.3.

Yes i mean indeed when using Open File dialog when uploading picture to Photobucket or Imageshack. But also by Kopete 0.50.5

Ok, then I can confirm that this feature is missing. Somebody with the powers should probably confirm this as a wishlist item.

[Wesley Velroij (velroy1)]

Yeah indeed its a missing feature. I hope they fix it.

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

Pressing F11 in the open file dialog will give you a preview.
I think that it should either be there by default or there be an easily discoverable option to enable it. (Mouseover a picture == enable, perhaps?)

[Wesley Velroij (velroy1)]

yeah it works all but its not what i mean realy i mean that i should be default like the normal browsing to set file previews on.

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

In theory this could be handled by kubuntu-default-settings.

In 4.2 there is a button for previews. Not having previews by default makes loads of sense considering kioslaves are network transparent and previewing 1000 photos from (e.g.) a remote machine accessed via sftp ought to be a PITA pretty much.
