That can be caused by a problem with the color profile for your display monitor or color profiles embedded in images. You can disable color management to test that. You can set the pref gfx.color_management.mode to 0 on the about:config page to disable Color Management. You need to close and restart Firefox to make the change effective.

You're welcome.

You can set the gfx.color_management.enablev4 pref to true on the about:config page and close and restart Firefox to enable ICC V4 support in Firefox 8+, but that feature is not yet fully implemented, so there may be problems in some cases.

Thank you for your help cor-el, i also found what was causing this. It was a new color profile which camed with the new drivers for my monitor, changed that back to default and now works everything perfect!

thx again
