Answer 3

Jquery:

 $(function(){
  $("img").click(function(){
   str = "<img src='"+$(this).attr('src')+"' />";
   $("#img_div").html(str).fadeIn(1000);
  })
  $("#img_div").click(function(){
   $(this).fadeOut(1000);
  })
 })

Css:

#img_div{
    position:absolute;
    display:none;
}

Html:

<div id="img_div"></div>
<img src="Backgrounds.png" width="100px">
