How do I turn off the animation when I'm on the Firefox home page?

I like having the Firefox start page as the page that loads whenever I launch Firefox. But I don't like the animations that always appear now that I have upgraded to 29.0.1 for Mac. (The shooting star, and the "space invaders" animation.) They're distracting. How can I turn off the animations?

If you prefer not to see snippets on the about:home page then you can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to an empty string on the about:config page. Delete the storage\moz-safe-about+home folder in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed (Firefox > Quit) to remove snippets stored in IndexedDB and make Firefox use a default set.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

You can reset the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to the default value to re-enable the snippets.

It probably will change in a few days, but might still be annoying.

You have a few options:

  1. Choose a different home page, such as your favorite search engine or portal site.
  2. Hide that area of the page using a custom style rule
  3. Override the animations and just show the regular Firefox logo using a custom style rule
  4. Block future animations from downloading and clear the existing ones by digging around a bit in settings

Heheh, it's Mozilla being cheerfully quirky on the Firefox page.

Mozilla will be swapping it with another image in the future; I don't know when, though. For now, you have a few options:

  1. Set Google/Bing/etc. as your homepage so that you won't see the Start Page when Firefox launches.
  2. Use the Stylish extension to remove the image.

Using the Stylish Addon:

  1. Click the Stylish icon > Write new Style > For this URL (as seen in the first image below)
  2. Create a style as seen in the second image (you can name it whatever you'd like, but
    #brandLogo {
      visibility: hidden;
    }

    must be kept. This makes the arcade game invisible. If you'd like to remove it altogether, swap visibility:hidden; with display:none;.

Save your style. A few weeks later, you can check to see if the arcade game has been removed by Mozilla by disabling the Stylish style on the Start Page. I know it's not a straightforward fix, but it's the best I can do.  :)

I hope that helped you! If it did, please mark this answer as the solution so that others can find information on the forums quickly. Thanks!
