I would like this feature to support using webm or animated webp format too.

So people like me can set a beautiful animated background image. (Opera supported this)

    What does your feature entail? What is it for? How will it affect existing workflows or user experience?
    Safari has the feature where you can change the background image to whatever you'd like through the main landing page at the bottom right. The fact that Orion still does not have this feature still baffles me to this day as this is such a better product that Safari but lacks this one simple customization feature.

    Safari:

    What are the exact ways that you see a user using your proposed feature? Please go into as much detail as possible, and provide examples of how other browsers/apps implement this feature, if applicable. If your feature suggestion adds on to an existing feature, how would it work into it to extend its usefulness?
    Again, the main rival is Safari and it allows users to change the background image. It's great to have each Orion browser a feel more personalized and I'm sure a lot of people would use and value the ability to do this. It wouldn't really make it more useful but it would perhaps allow for more individuality and uniqueness.

      You can. Just press the plus icon and then it will allow you to choose a custom picture?

        Soham Nevermind just checked, i accidentally opened safari however as it's orion, you can use a browser extension for it. For example. i use tabliss, you can try other ones as well.

          Soham I feel like the fact that people who want to change it have to go to these lengths to do so shows that this should be implemented.

              okimilktea I am also unable to find the preferences.plist file in my profile folder in ~/Application Support/Orion/Defaults (my profile folder). Seems like the documentation needs to update?

                It would be nice, when we eventually get this feature, if it worked in a similar fashion to Floorp where you can set a custom image folder and new tab pages will cycle through the images contained in that folder at random.

                  The mac app has a choice of background images. There does not seem to be a way to add these on iPhone. Would be nice to customize.

                  Also would be nice to be able to use our own images or to use images like those on safari. They have some nice patterns. But any images/colors at all on mobile would be a great start

                  You could have background images on the mobile start page
