i recently uploaded to the latest version of firefox. since then i had to debug flash in order to get videos to work. now i find there are two other issues. when i went to mozilla add-ons to select a new appearance, no images came up on the mozilla appearance page (please see attachment).

i am also finding that many of the website pages that i go to are showing very simple graphics. there are simple lines that are not complete, etc. the second image attached if from my twitter page as viewed on firefox. the third image attached is from my twitter page as viewed on internet explorer. i did not have this problem before uploading to the latest firefox.

i just updated the latest nvidia driver for my computer, so that is not the issue.

thank you

Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : Override the colors specified by the page with my selections above

Try "Never" if the default "Only with High Contrast themes" isn't working.

This setting affects background images.
