So you mean this pixelation only occurs in pictures that are published online, on websites? Are you zooming in to the pictures to view them, e.g. going +100% with the zoom function in the bottom right corner of your browser, if you're using internet Explorer?

Is it the same once youve saved the image and opened it in photo viewer ?

When you connect via 3G the full image is not downloaded to save bandwidth, which is why you see the poor quality, you can usually download the full res image by using a key sequence (hover over the image and it may give you a hint).

You shouldn't see this with a normal wireless connection, you may have still been connected to O2 as well as your in-laws WIFI
 
Ah ok, i will try again and see what happens.. sometimes even though i dont have my dongle plugged in the software in the laptop sometimes picks up WiFi connections so i will have to double check everything. Thankyou for you help really appreciate it.
