AOL's browser uses a graphics compression utility to help speed up downloading of pages. This often results in blurry images or images containing black bars.

All AOL members have the option of deselecting "Use Compressed Graphics" in their Web Preferences. Here is the path:

My AOL» Preferences» WWW» Web Graphics

and   uncheck
"Use compressed graphics"

Here is a more detailed explanation if you continue to have problems:

• Q. Why do my images look more blurry on AOL's Browser and why do some have black bars on them!
  A. America Online utilizes graphics compression software that speeds up the delivery of web pages to it's members by compressing images and various multimedia applications. Images that are BMP, GIF or JPG are converted into the proprietary Johnson-Grace image format. All AOL members have the option of deselecting "Use Compressed Graphics" in their Web Preferences.
  
  
• Q. OK, I have deselected "Use Compressed Graphics" in my WWW preferences and the images still look the same! What am I doing wrong?
  A.This is a Caching issue. In your WWW preferences you can set your history to "0" pages and clear the History. You must also delete the files in your Temporary Internet Files folder. Holding down the "Control" key on your keyboard and simultaneously mouse-clicking on the Browser Reload icon while the browser window is active will also clear your proxy cache and display the latest data from the website.
