I'm using Firefox, but when I tried going to Facebook on Internet 
Explorer, the pixilation was even worse.  I have no experience with Chrome.

It's only very slightly noticeable on Flickr.  Not fuzzy, just slightly 
pixilated.

But the images on Facebook are really bad, and, oddly, some are much 
worse than others.
