Steps to reproduce:

I downloaded nightly and first browsed through mozilla's website for a while then logged onto facebook for a while. After logging out of fb i clicked on newtab.


Actual results:

After clicking on new tab i got a screen with 9 boxes showing the wesites I had browsed through in the past, for my case it was only two facebook and mozilla.But in  the boxes no screenshots of facebook was dislayed only the text "facebook" was dislayed but for mozillas both name and screenshot was displayed.


Expected results:

In the boxes screenshots of facebook should have also been dislayed but it was not.
Your likely seeing https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754608 

Showing thumbs of certain sites was considered a 'security issue'  Sites using Cache-control no-store and https disk caching now will not show a thumbnail.
Also, since you downloaded a new version of firefox, the browser has not had a chance to store the thumbnails for these sites. Try clicking each of the boxes on the new tab page at least once. The thumbnails should appear afterward.
Ankit, can you please follow up in this bug report in regards to comment 1 and 2? Thanks.
