Hi jester

You may have received a response to your request for support with Mozilla software that directed you to a telephone number for help. Please do not use this number as it is a scam and will put your data at risk.

I should be able to help you with adding an image ot the home page n Firefox. For starters, type about:config in the addressbar and search for:

toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets

Once found, toggle this to True.

Then follow the guidance at https://superuser.com/questions/1495946/how-do-i-change-the-background-image-of-home-page-in-firefox.

I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
