I upgraded to Firefox 6.0, and now my website, www.selkiecomic.com, is displaying a white background instead of the usual pink. I have confirmed with friends that it affects Firefox 6, and not those with previous versions.

I asked two friends, one with the FF6 upgrade and one without, to check my website. The upgraded user said he also saw a white background instead of the usual pink. The FF5 user said he saw a pink background as per usual.
