Again: How does the icon for Top Sites in the New Tab page is generated?
Dear friends,
as this article https://support.mozilla.org/de/questions/1198764 has been closed, the problem still is unsolved. Q: What has to be done to get a big top-site icon instead of a screenshot with the favicon in the lower right? As you can see in the attachement amazon and ebay have big icons while my own site has a screenshot. The hint " set browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled to true" does not work for me. After I implemented it, I don't get a picture at all. Instead a "N" is displayed which is obviously only the first letter of my domain.

If the problem hasn't been solved, did you accidentally mark a post as 'Chosen Solution' ?
Would you please take a look at this thread :

Maybe the 'Chosen Solution' here will work for you too (fingers crossed .....)
Hi pklauss, if it's your site and you want Firefox to display a large icon, you can add a tag to the page headers pointing to a suitably sized icon. For example:
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico"> <link rel="icon" type="image/png" sizes="256x256" href="/img/Fxcss_256.png">
here: https://www.userchrome.org/
I think there was another thread on this, but I can't recall whether it was here on or Reddit or on the Mozilla Discourse site or... anyway, that's one method I'm aware of; there might be others.
Here's the other thread from early June: How and where to create a tile/icon on my www.site which is larger than the normal favicon for firefox tabs?
As noted there, I couldn't figure out how to clear the cached thumbnail for the new tab page right away. By now the large icon is being used....
