Firefox does not show web page graphics or icons, mostly blanks or boxes with type.
With one of the recent updates, Firefox shows web pages without the clickable graphics, such as this page (Ask a New Question) where above the details box, there are only two vertical lines. I know there should be something in those spaces, cause when I click in them something happens - like a dialogue box pops up or a word gets inserted into this typing. This is consistent on all web pages. Major photos show, just not the little graphics. Icons or graphics that are visible sometimes are offset (ex: this page has an arrow in a green box over lapping the outline of the Search Firefox Help box). Other than that, this page has only two other graphics, it's all type. Thanks.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
- Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

This solved the issue. However, for my setup with Firefox 10 the path is: Prefs > Content > Fonts & Colors > Colors > Allow colors to chose...
I should add that I couldn't find anything named High Contrast under Accessibility in Prefs (or anywhere else). But no matter, it's been fixed.
Sorry, about posting instructions for Windows. I appear to have missed in your system details that you are on a Mac.
