Website thumbnails display on picture tabs instead of the picture

more options

Hello, since I updated to Firefox 63, tabs that are just a picture now display a thumbnail of the website they're on instead of the picture on the tab. However, before I loaded one tab that was a picture, it had the picture that was on the tab there rather than the thumbnail of the website. Is there any way I can fix this?

Hi Infernoflower1, this change was mentioned in another thread earlier today. Before, the "site icon" for a stand-alone image was a tiny version of the image, and now it's the actual site icon for the site where the image was loaded from. I don't know if you can change that.

Cross reference to the other thread in case anything develops there: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1239164

Thank you. I wonder if the two bugs that were also posted will be fixed? I hope so.

I click "Vote", but it directs me to the page pictured below. Do I need to click something on the page for my vote to go through?

On that page, you check the box and then click the blue button. Every time you vote, you get a page listing your past votes and the new bug you wanted to vote on. I don't know why it does that.
