This will go away in a week after every in world pregnant doges about it.

But in the meantime they let you use any image you want. Anyone have a very small all white jpeg?

You can remove your background image at any time by clicking Remove background image in the bottom left corner of the homepage.

I see a "Change Background Image" button, but there is no option to remove it.

To make changes, you have to be logged in to your google acct, which I don't do while at work.

Okay. The Remove thing only removes the customized image you selected. Google still pukes up another random image in the background.

I'm logged in since I use gmail for work purposes. You can change the image all you want, but the there is no way to get back to good ol' Google Classic sans annoying image.

Now excuse me while I enjoy a beverage:

if you're using firefox and have the google search box, they haven't added the background image to that.

I actually still have it set as my home page since its a quick jump to my gmail account. Otherwise, yeah, search using the google box in firefox.
