I notice it on Facebook most of all, when you hover over some image they shift with a little zoom effect. I tried the browser in safe mode - no difference. I looked at the same image in Chrome and it doesn't shift like it does in Firefox. If I had to describe the effect its almost like rolling over a 360 degree vr image, you see that little shit that lets you know it can do more or like a digital camera trying to focus when taking a picture. The attached image shows the change that the same image goes through over the hover state.

Any idea ?

Thanks

Are these images possibly scaled if you check this in "Tools -> Page Info" (right-click: View Image Info)?

Its just the Facebook news feed.

And yes the images look to be scaled.

I read a lot of posts on preventing this from coding standpoint, is that the issue? I doesn't do it in Chrome so i was curious if it was a recent change in Firefox or something else that could be toggled.
