similiar to safari, there should be an option to change the new tab background to a custom image, not just the default wallpapers.

      Until (if) this is implemented, is it possible to replace the default images in the filesystem somewhere? Took a brief look for those images, but couldn't find the location.

        danderson we pull from apple included backgrounds so if you can change that, it will work

        Thanks. I didn't realize that I could scroll horizontally to select additional images and it was the same set of images.

        Recently looked through the orion used guide and found the preferences plist. If you go to the preferences plist for the indivdiual profiles located in ~/Library/Application Support/Orion/[Your profiles] there is a string under <key>backgroundImageOnStartPage</key> in the string it starts with file:///. Just insert the location of the file that you want. Then it shoudl work also.

          andrew93 That is a pretty cool hack!

          Do you mind updating the technical docs with this? (it is all open source, just click the edit icon on the page)

            Vlad Of course! Do you have a preference where in the docs this should go?

              andrew93 Anywhere on the technical documentation page. It is meant for 'hacking' Orion and I think this qualifies as so!

              Could we get (if possible) the ability to choose a custom image to place on the entire tab page like how it is on Safari:

              Might be tricky to fit in with the extensions etc but they could probably just be hidden entirely on the new tab page. They're not needed.

                  ahh i see okay okay

                    Vlad Is this temporary or will there be another solution? I can't find anything called "your profiles" or "backgroundImageOnStartPage" in the location described here.

                      the brackets there indicate that you replace [your profiles] with the id of your profile.
                      then, in the preferences file, u either create or edit the backgroundImageOnStartPage property

                        It would be nice to be able to choose a custom background of our choosing for the start page like Safari.
