We should provide an alternate "Mohammad" page without any images on it. Telling people to edit their javascript is silly; most people aren't nearly tech savvy enough to understand what that even means (for example, they have to first understand that a web page can be displayed differently for different users).
There is a rather fundamental flaw in this proposal (actually, in both): They don't want a page where they can look at without having to see an image that is said to be that of its founder, they want the picture removed completely. The javascript/css-option is only meant as an alibi, without any chance to actually appease those who prefer censorship over content they don't agree with. The more complicated the option is, the longer it might serve as a diversion. A better choice would be a patch the firefox sources that disables rendering of images that contain "muhammad" (in different spellings) that needs recompilation of firefox.
