what is the format of your image? check if you can change your format when you save your picture. firefox documents if htm

try change your firefox download settings to ask where to save you pictures, then you can change to another format

sorry for my bad english, i am portuguese speaker, any doubt, post here.

When you you right-click to save the picture, type the name of the picture and add .jpeg after the name. e.g. mypicture.jpeg . It seems that pictures from certain sources (like an iphone sometimes) are causing this problem. Any pictures that you have already saved as firefox documents can be fixed by right-clicking and selecting rename and adding .jpeg to the name. This works for all windows operating systems.

(if you have enabled viewing of file extensions in your folder options you will need to delete .htm from the name before adding .jpeg)
