Is it just me or does Opera not load pictures properly?

I've noticed that when I open a site, any pictures on it come out kind of pixely or grainy. But when I go to the same time on Chrome/FF, it's fine.

Which version are you using? For me, Opera is able to open not one, several (10, 15) 5k by 5k pics. I'm using 10.61

I started using Safari today, because I grew weary of Opera's inability to completely function with all of Google's sites, among other things. Safari lacks a lot of functional I'd, and I may wind up using Chrome, if I can find some extensions to fix glaring flaws.

Kind of funny watching MS try to kill off its own product.

I'm glad I've held off on changing my vote for the time being.

I switched to Chrome last week, having grown tired of Firefox's memory usage problems, but was reminded quickly why I stopped using Chrome the first time around last year (Asian font rendering, live bookmarks, Rikaichan's name dictionary, Twitter add-ons). This time, however, I made the necessary modifications, both with add-ons and my own habits, to make for a more comfortable changeover and made up my mind to stick with Chrome.

But then here comes Firefox 4 all of a sudden with a new Chrome-like interface and the promise of better memory usage...and now I don't know which one to stick with!

I'd like to get back to proper fonts and the name dictionary via the new Firefox, but I've already settled myself with ChromedBird and RSS Live Links (plus this forum tends to make my CPU activity go crazy whenever I want to post a reply in FF). I guess I'll be alternating based on my mood now?

I use Firefox. I was using Safari at first when I got my new computer, but grew annoyed at the way you're supposed to open new tabs and switched to Firefox

BACK TO OPERA, AWWW YEAH.

Latest version works dandy with every site I've seen, including Gmail, Google Maps, and more. I don't suffer the UI lag from Firefox anymore, or Chrome's overwhelming feeling of being half-baked.
