Odd image issues since new Firefox 66.xx.x 64bit update

[primestar31]

Ever since FF decided to upgrade a few weeks ago, I'm having issues with images only on SatelliteGuys website (so far as I know).

I've cleared my FF cache completely, logged in, logged out, and nothing clears it. I just tried it in the latest Chrome browser, and it works perfectly there.

Issue: whenever I'm on the home page, whether first visit or returning after checking out "New Posts" the icons at the upper right of the screen (my username, the envelope, the flag, and the Log Out) are all cut in half top to bottom. Very annoying, BUT, if I swipe/move across them with my mouse, they fill in completely.

Like it's some sort of video issue. NEVER happened before this particular FireFox upgrade... Also, this upgrade has upgraded from .0.0 to .0.1 to .0.2 over the last couple of weeks WITHOUT fixing it.

Sounds like a Firefox issue as nothing has changed here.

I've been seeing that on FF on Linux for some time. Probably at least a few months.

I'm currently using Firefox Quantum 66.0.2 on Windows 7 and I see this:

What OS are you using?

What OS are you using?

WINDOWS 7 Pro 64-bit

Working fine here on Windows 10 Pro with 66.0.2.

 

[harshness]

WINDOWS 7 Pro 64-bit

That's the same configuration I'm using.

Ok, I've now noticed something else while seeing your replies. I have this thread setup to email me when there's a NEW reply. When that happens, if I click on the direct post link which is down the page, the problem doesn't appear since it starts at the lower page location.

So, I checked that out. IF I then leave the site, and just come in to the regular home page with nothing else, the problem appears. In other words, simply scrolling down the page PAST those icons "fixes" it.

That would likely have to be some sort of video Refresh issue, right?

 

[harshness]

More a browser rendering refresh issue. When I go to the home page, everything seems to render fine for me. I note that it works the same way on Windows 10 Pro with Firefox Quantum 66.0.2.

Since I neglected to ask before, what Satellite Guys "style" are you using?

 

[primestar31]

SatelliteGuy 2016 with the Default color scheme.

I have contrast vision issues since Lasik 19 years ago, and that one works the best for me.

Using Firefox Quantum 66.0.2 64 bit on Ubuntu Linux 16.04.6 LTS and not seeing it here.

Try it with SatelliteGuys 2017 just to see if it stays. You can go back to 2016 after the test.
2016 works fine here, with win10

 

[primestar31]

That one does NOT appear to have the issue, but I HATE it. I'd rather stay with the 2016 and just deal with it.

 

[harshness]

I use the 2016 style as well.

I will say that the Firefox "tab" has borked twice today when loading a page here. It seems like I've had the same Firefox version for quite a while.

 

[ncted]

Yeah, I am sticking with 2016. It isn't that big a deal to me.

I have FF 66.0.3 on win10 home with no problem.

I've been using the 32 bit version for several months since experiencing different glitches here and there.
So far it's pretty stable. I launch the 64 bit ver. once in awhile and still the same stuff goes on.
