Why when I click on the zoom in picture in the users gallery the images goes blur as if they were actually resampled? I'm using firefox 3.5, I wanna know if this has anything to do with it? or is it something you guys implemented while I was gone this past weeks? 
EDIT: not to go off topic, but also I just noticed my avatar isn't working on the forums... It was the same avatar 50x50 size, only that I recently updated the file a couple of hours (yesterday around 2pm) and it's not showing... :|
...what could be the problem? thanks in advance.
This is the link of the submission I'm using as an avatar btw =

Zooming all cool in flock, must be a browser thing.

Yes, it's a Firefox thing. Images rendered at a non-native size are resampled. It's been that way since version 3.0, I believe. Nothing you can do about it, aside from using a different browser or an older version of Firefox. A future update is supposed to allow the user to change this setting, but there's no word on when it'll be out (last time I checked, anyway). We've had some threads regarding this subject before. Do a search in this forum for 'blur' and I'm sure you'll find them.
As for the avatar problem, try choosing the 'Use for avatar' option again and see if that works. (Alternatively, choose another piece for your avatar and then switch back again)

= Thanks, and for the link to that also, I was reading about it... I'll try to get 3.6 after I reinstall windows and do that process to fix the zooming problem.
