You are able to right click and open image in new tab to view any image at the native size.
Unlike the old forum, we are no longer physically removing images from posts when they exceed 1024px. Instead images are optimized automatically if they are attachments, and the benefits of compression and a better cache network for images mean that we're confident we can send larger images to devices on smaller screens too (which used to be the reason to strip them).

I get that (although I actually preferred having attachments at the end of the post as thumbnails, rather than having them in line), but I'm not sure why the whole content area is squished into a column only 1170px wide
What about using more of my screen? I'm looking at a 900px wide image which has been scaled to 762px wide (FF31/Win8.1), which is actually a worse display than the old forum where everything up to 1024px was displayed at its native size.
