My Pictures from my blog appears very bad quality with FFox, not the case with IE7 This can be seen for example here : http://julien.coillard.fr/632-solstice-dhiver-a-valsaintes

If you click on the small squared picture at the begining of the post, the picture is opened at his size and you can see on the bottom squared black pixels Trying the same with IE7 you can see that all is correct

All images in the screenshot look fine to me.

If there are problems with the colors then 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.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.

Already try this. This is not the problem ... It's something on the rendering of the colors. You can see that on those 2 screenshots on the image referenced in the post on my blog :

- Firefox = http://julien.coillard.free.fr/images/ImageFFox.jpg

- IE7 = http://julien.coillard.free.fr/images/ImageIE7.jpg

To see the difference you to load the pictures (don't compare them on Firefox) and the original picture as loaded on my blog is here : http://julien.coillard.free.fr/images/valsaintes2.jpg

Sorry if my explanation is not clear, i'm french and my english is not excellent
