I collect images ... when I download an image there is a series of numbers below the image ... over the years I have noticed the numerals have vastly increased in quantity ... there are now as many as 37 numbers under each picture I download ... it is very tedious to reduce or erase these numbers for every image downloaded ... obviously there is some sort of "counter" built into the browser ... Is there any way to reset or eliminate this counter ? ... Thanks ...

Hello,

I am trying to download a few JPG images from Meetup.com. Here is an example URL:

https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/3/5/0/a/highres_528673578.jpeg

This is CLEARLY a JPG image from the URL. However, when I right click on the image to Save As the only choice given is AVIF! I cannot open or use AVIF files. As you know the conversion process is LOSSY so trying to convert BACK to a JPG format is not recommended.

It is fine if Firefox and other browsers want to use AVIF format internally but you should, at least, give users the OPTION of downloading the native format.

So how do I fix/configure Firefox to provide the native JPG file download?

Thanks, Steve

On my site, I am not able to view images. I can on other browsers, but not with Firefox (Developer Edition). I have tried new profiles, private window, etc and images still do not display. Images DO display on most other sites, and this is my first time encountering the issue. Images show on every other browser that I have tested. The url to the website is https://www.nohacks.org

Hi, I have a pinned a website that will not show its icon (it won't when unpinned either).

Using the latest FF, Edge will show an icon. Is there a way to refresh FF and make it refetch the correct icon?

Thanks

Photo of the icon I do get.

Hi,

I discovered today that the installation of Firefox I have has modified some emoji, like the flag of Switzerland has been replaced with the one from Sark. See the screenshot looking at the same website with Firefox on the left, and Brave on the right:

There's a big mess in the flags' emojis apparently looking at a page showing all the countries. See second screenshot.

I use Gmail, and when I receive a newsletter from the local government, Gmail does not display the images in the newsletter. I've set Gmail to display the images (photographs), so I'm guessing Firefox must have a setting that is blocking the display?

Emojis do not show on Firefox 146 on macOS. I downgraded to 145.0.2 and they do show, so it seems related to Firefox 146.

I have macOS 26.2 running in both test cases.

Emoji in question: 👨🏻‍💻

Hi everybody, I need a bit of tech help! I have changed some images on my website but Firefox browser still displays the old images! Does anybody know how to correct this? I have the latest version of Firefox. If I use another browser the new images appear! Thanks for your help. Gazza

Firefox loads in some images very distorted where they are pixelated and in negative color. It's not all images, it's also not on specific websites, it's just in general. Some websites don't have any problems and others are practically unusable. The icons in my tabs are often desaturated from their normal color as well, see the youtube icon for example the color is very muted versus the actual color of the logo.

Can no longer attach RGB565 16-bit color BMP files. We have used these files for YEARS due to our *OLD* embedded system and *USED* to be able to POST them using Firefox on Confluence, but *NOW* someone changed it to give you and *ERROR*, attached is the *ERROR* and what the image *SHOULD* look like! Please add an EXTENSION (plug-in) to support these images again (or *AT LEAST* let me drag and drop them as I used to be able to do). I would add it using "Add Images" below but Firefox *WON'T LET ME*!!! I get the ERROR (that I never used to get until recently): The image "file:///C:blahblahblah.bmp" cannot be displayed because it contains errors. It does *NOT* contain errors, it is just an older format that is perfectly *FINE* and should be supported!!!

right click save image as not working in ancestry, but works on other websites. Has always worked on Ancestry in the past. Just rejoined Ancestry & now not working

When attempting to drag/Insert picture into email text, the message "The following files couldn't be attached: filename.jpg. Please try again later." appears. I have not been able to find a solution. The dragged/Inserted picture always ends up outside the email text box and cannot be moved into it. What is a solution?

Is this something new or do I need to reload Firefox? Firefox 133.03 64-bit is up to date on Windows 10.

It worked last Christmas!!! It is not important now that the holiday is over but would like to fix it.

While taking screenshot of entire page or section within the page, taken screenshot resolution is of very low quality. As a result when shared the screenshot with someone using copy paste function or download and share option, in both methods screenshot image quality is very low making it very difficult to read data/text from the same. Text from the screenshot is barely in readable format. Even zooming the image distorts image totally. I want a way to increase screenshot resolution or improve its image quality so we can read easily without zoom or zooming the image file.

When I am scolling and the mouse hits an image, a large image preview appears. How on earth do I turn this off? I can see tab preview images to turn off but not this stupid image previre thing that covers everything I am trying to read or navigate on the web site.

Thanks very much M

Since one of your updates, all of my photo files now have your logo on them and I can see any of the thousands of photos I have What the hell did you put in your update? JUST STOP SENDING UPDATES EVERY DAMN TIME I TURN AROUND.

For many years, I've used a utility called DropZone in my menubar, which (among other things) allows documents to be automatically sorted into user-created locations (e.g., folders in the Finder).

Last night, suddenly, each time I drag a photo from Firefox to DropZone, a large window called "Action Console" opens, displaying a bunch of text. Here's a typical message that's displayed:

[Launching task with command line: runner.rb task-26498]

Task description file task-26498:

[Task completed]

Ironically, although the last line says "Task completed," the task I was attempting to perform (moving a photo into a given folder) is in fact NOT comleted at all.

Further observations:

This behavior is not displayed in Safari. In Safari, images continue to be moved to the desired folder, as intended.

I googled "action console keeps opening in Firefox," and I performed 4 troubleshooting steps that google AI suggested (including launching Firefox into troubleshooting mode). Unfortunately, in troubleshooting mode, the behavior persists, which suggests that this has nothing to do with any add-ons.

I also created a new, test profile—but even in the test profile, the behavior persists.

So, I'm stumped. After years of using Firefox, this behavior has appeared out of nowhere—and I cannot figure out why, nor how to fix it.

Any further suggestions?

I am writing an email with two photo attachments. Preview will not work (open) for me to double check the correct file is being sent. It will, however, open a file with only text.
