Hi,

I have sensory processing issues, and when I scroll on pages with background images, sometimes the text moves, and the background image doesn't, and this triggers my migraines.

I have tried using the preferences > content > colors options, and the "readable text on white background" style,* and they help, but on some sites (not this site) they make it impossible to see what I'm mistyping.

Does anyone know of a good way to block background images without this problem, or which can be toggled?

If the problem is only that the background doesn't scroll then this bookmarklet might help.

Make a fixed background image attached to the body element scrollable.

javascript:void(document.body.style.setProperty("background-attachment","scroll","important"));

You can create a new bookmark and paste the JavaScript bookmarklet code in its location field.

This is probably a good site to be aware of http://www.accessfirefox.org/Firefox_Accessibility_Extensions.php It is a semi-official Mozilla community run site. IIRC the site and many of its add-ons were caught out by Australis. That is probably one site we should reach out to in advance if for instance making anything less distinct smaller, or lower contrast.
