Forum:Blurry Images

Over on the Marvel Database, we're having a weird problem with images being blurred when reduced in size. Not all images are affected, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with when they were uploaded, nor does the size they're often reduced to seem to, necessarily, be the problem. , and the third image on the third row (pretty obvious which one), but only at that particular size.

(Earth 616) Original Dimensions - 52px × 79px Firefox - scaled to 79px × 120px


 * It is something that Firefox staff doesn't seem to want to fix. The image itself is still the same size. Unicogirl
