=== How to set up your Wikipedia account to not see images on a specific article ===

To disable the display of images for a specific article only, you must have an account. If you do not have an account, visit [[Special:Userlogin]] to create one. Once you have an account, you can disable the images on a specific page by changing your personal settings at your [[Wikipedia:CSS|CSS page]]. This allows you to avoid images that offend you without affecting other users. To do this, create a page at [[Special:Mypage/monobook.css]] and add the following line:

Line 17:

<code>body.page-Muhammad img {display: none;}</code>

===Submit code change for Mediawiki===

If you are unhappy with the configuration possibilities available at present, you may consider

submitting a code change for the [[copy left]] [[Mediawiki]] (which displays the Wikipedia content). The [[Wikimedia Foundation]], that provides the hosting and bandwidth for [[Wikipedia]], lacks funds to implement many good and useful modifications to the software that displays the Wikipedia content. Such modifications can be created and submitted to the Foundation for addition to Mediawiki. An example of what could be created is a user option to not display images that are in certain [[Wikipedia:Categorization|categories]].
