How to write a big cartesian product symbol in MathJax

This short post is about how to write something like ${\times }_{i\in I}{V}_i$ and  $\underset{i\in I}{\times }{V}_i$

MathJax doesn't allow picture environments so we can't define a new command that draws a cross. The solution is simple: Enlarge the normal \times command.

Paste this in a math environment at the top of the document:

\newcommand{\bigtimes}{\mathop{\Large\times\normalsize}}
