User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0 Build ID: 20160502172042 Steps to reproduce: Our 360 viewer always had this problem in FF. Before FF 45.01. There was a workaround (not a solution!) But with the new release the problem got worse. In versions pre 45 there was no image-blinking when you set an image as the background of a div. Actual results: Firefox is waiting until picture is scrolled into view to do processing/loading/resizing in front of user. There’s plenty of time before scrolling for Firefox to do that work ahead of time (page if fully loaded and firefox.exe is idle) so user doesn’t see picture change but firefox waits. Expected results: The image should already been rendered because it exist in the div-structure! (like al other browsers do) http://ia3.nl/serpent/

Redirect a needinfo that is pending on an inactive user to the triage owner.
:emilio, since the bug has recent activity, could you have a look please?

For more information, please visit auto_nag documentation.

Redirect seems broken, but issue is still there. This seems due to async image decoding. However nowadays you can use decoding="sync" on the image element to avoid flickering.
