Same here ... I recently switched to Thunderbird for news reader and I 
see the same behavior when viewing image in-line (through news reader). 
When I bring up the image as an attachment and view it with either eog 
(default image viewer on gnome) or save the file and view with gimp they 
look the same. Firefox/Thunderbird problem? They DO have common roots 
coming from mozilla.
