Well, it's all dandy and stuff, but... is it possible to turn it off, if only temporary? (^_^);

What is bilinear filtering in Firefox?

It filters images when they're scaled up, smoothing them out.

Ahhh, I see. Thank you.

I can't think of anything to suggest other than there may be an extension out there which can do this for you? Have you searched the Firefox Add-ons website? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

If there aren't any extensions for it yet, there may be one or two developed after the Firefox 3 final is released

EDIT: Unless anyone knows any 'about:config' options which allow you to disable it?

No mod for it. Was hoping there would be something in about:config, but can't find anything specific about it.

I just edited my post saying unless anyone knows any 'about:config' options to disable it, before I saw yours! lol.

I've searched a bit for extensions and about:config options, but I can't find anythin anywhere. Sorry.

Heh! Still, kind of a shame. Some stuff just doesn't filter well.

Yeah, there isn't an option for it, it just checks to see if the scale isn't 1.0

Personally, I'd like to see them adopt the IE CSS rule for it, -ms-interpolation or something.
