Since upgrading to 8.0.1, color and B&W photos on all web sites have patches of green in them. I opened the same web sites in both Chrome and IE, and all photos look normal. Is this a bug? Please advise.

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.

Many thanks! That did the trick! I checked all other settings yesterday, but wasn't aware of gfx.color_management.mode, which was set to 2. Changed it to 0, and restarted FF. Problem resolved. Thanks, again!
