Firefox tile appearance on 8.1

Question

When I look at my field of apps logos I can see the firefox tile, blue background with round fox. After update from 8 to 8.1 I see the same tile, but when I pin it to start all I get is the blue background. No fox. How do I get the complete tile? I lost my fox. Thank you.
