All in the topic.
When I click on a pic on the trending page, it opens the pic in the same page. It's maybe better to open it in a new tab.

By default? No! But we have somewhere in your user settings an option that gives you the choice if new links should be open in a new tab or not. As far I know it's not build in for trending, so it's probably not working there. But on the other hand, if you want so. I think a javascript solution would be better, because:

a) It's your choice. So use your own hardware power to do it. :p
b) It's much easier for coders, because we don't need to put a function or check over every link.

javascript code
Code
var target = openBlank ? "_blank" : "_self";
var links = document.links;

for (var i=0; i < links.length; i++)
{
if (links[i].href.search("coh2.org") == -1)
c[i].target = target;
}


So if another coder is faster than me, feel free to build the js solution in.

Imho coh2.org side it should make it open in a new tab so we don't have to back to coh2.org everytime you click something in trending on front page.

Sure, but there are also users who think the other way even if they are hardly to find. You have tons of ways to make sure to open a window in a new tab. Like:
CTRL + click
Middlemouse click
Set it in the settings of your browser
The same doesn't work if you (as a user) want to be sure, that a link should be open in the same tab.

Easy fix, just middle mouse click. Your finger is literally right next to the solution to your "issue"

Middle mouse is awesome, it opens links in new tabs plus you can close tabs with it!
