    Hi there.

    I have a blog here: http://www.uncarved.org/blog

    When I save low-res versions of jpegs (for example using photoshop's "save for web") and upload them to my blog they come out entirely black.

    This only seems to be an issue in recent versions of firefox (3.5.2 etc) - they images show up fine in Safari and Explorer.

    Any ideas?

    Try saving your image files as .jpg instead of .jpeg.

    hmmm. JPG seems to have the same effect, but uploading gifs does the trick. I don't really like gifs as much quality wise, but hey ho it's a start I guess!

    It's a Photoshop issue. Don't embed color profiles when you save for the web. You have EPSON Perfection1240 in your black jpeg files.

    Thanks Iridiax - will look into that also.
