Jagged google logo in Firefox / Shiretoko

Here is a screenshot of the google home page. You can see that the google logo in Opera is very smooth and in firefox it is jagged. It has been like that since I can remember, just now got around to testing it in other browsers. Also, when using Firefox, the logo will go back to smooth if I drag it somewhere.

Any idea why this is happening?

Are you using a firefox plugin that magnifies the screen such as NoSquint? smile

Maybe your zoom is set to larger than standard. Try hitting CTRL-0 to reset.

Re: Jagged google logo in Firefox / Shiretoko

problem fixed,

Turned out to be operator error. No magnifier plugin, but the Firefox was zoomed in one level. i don't remember ever using the zoom feature on FF.  I looked at that jagged logo for about a year.

No wonder no-one else posted anything about this.

Thanks for the help guys

Wow poor thing, surfing the web at zoom level one for a whole year. Glad you have it fixed.

lol that's ridicilous smile

Why does firefox remember the zoom level ?

Accessibility I think. If you really need to use your browser with zoom, it's really uncomfortable to change settings every time you open your browser.

You can also set up FF to avoid zooming the images, and zoom the text only. The option is in View/Zoom.
