perhaps try inline style?
<img src=""" Website """ alt=""Picture"" style=""width:" W "px;height:" H "px; border-radius: 50%;"" />

Could you post the full code for this? Perhaps is missing elsewhere? Otherwise, maybe as workaround... you could download the picture and then display it the traditional way.

Interesting... I'm not entirely sure what the issue is, but you can save it to an html file and you'll that the border-radius does work in your browser... perhaps save it as a file and update the WB control to navigate to that file? :think:

Are you sure that the browser being used isn't IE? I've never tried using Firefox in a GUI using Mozilla.Browser but border-radius won't work in IE unless you specify the meta tag to force IE=9 or later.

@kczx3 good catch! I totally missed the metatags. You're probably right! :+1:
