Kill the "sprite" that Google has started using on the main search page if you use the background image feature, the link for which takes you to the regular page so you can see the "doodle of the day"... no, thank you--I do not want any animation. This style has 3 options: (1) remove the thing entirely (no image, no link), (2) just hide the thing but keep the link, and (3) the default, replace the sprite with the old static image, keeping the link.

NOTE: yes, if you click on the link to go look at the doodle, it'll stop the animation (till the next time). Thank you, but, no... I won't be held hostage to a doodle. (Jessica Rabbit where are you? It's not a Cool World either.) It doesn't seem to time out [so, "You vill zee our doodle!"].
