 Replying to [comment:2 kingfitz]:
 > to be clear I have it working using firefox quantum 66.0.3 64bit on
 windows 10 x64 ltsc. I understand there are differences between quantum
 and ESR. I would like to change the newtab background in tor browser.
 There must be a way.  Thank you

 Yes and I try to figure out where we need to look closer. It might be the
 case that Mozilla fixed something that makes it work for you in 66.0.3 but
 not in ESR 60 which Tor Browser is based on. If that's the case we might
 be able to backport that fix. Otherwise, if ESR 60 is working for you we
 need to look at our own patches figuring out which one is the problem
 here.

 Thus, please test an Firefox 60 ESR version on your computer first.
