Two things.
1) You have rendering code in the callback, this does not make
any sense in Seaside and is very common mistake.
2) You need to supply a name for the popup window to avoid the walkback.
I would try this.
MyComponent>>initialize
bigPictureRequested := false.
MyComponent>>renderContentOn: html
bigPictureRequested ifTrue:
[bigPictureRequested := false.
^self renderBigPictureOn: html].
.....
html popupAnchor
callback: [bigPictureRequested := true];
name: 'big_pic';
extent: 400@400; "Size of the picture"
with: [html renderMiniature: item on: html].
....
MyComponent>>renderBigPictureOn: html
html image src: 'thesource' .... .
html anchor
callback: [self session closePopupWithoutReloadingOpener];
with: 'close link'.
