Anyone else having trouble with blurry ebay pics when using their tablets?
I have two tablets and for a while have noticed that the first photo of any given item on offer won't focus up. When this happened previously it used to resolve itself after a couple of seconds. If more than one pic is featured, the others are ok..
No probs when using a laptop.

I don't have tablet, but that sounds like not fully downloading and decoding of progressive JPEG images. I can't think why it should be only the first one.

Yes, I noticed this too a couple of days ago- thought it was my dual core tab so looked on the quad core and still doing it. Seems related to the recent ebay upgrade of their listing software, I think.

Glad somebody else has seen it. Not sure how to point this out, I've used their contact form but no response.
This only occurs on the first picture of the item, the following pics are ok.
No good for the seller if only one picture supplied.
