for next version of fast dial,
instead of the link "Find Logo.." leading to userlogos.org/search/node/keyword

what do u think about having it lead to:
userlogos.org/logos/new?filter0=keyword

Agree, I had already implemented this :)
Things not yet done are: implement queued refresh (so that limited number of thumbnails are refreshed simultaneously) and appearance preferences.

Awesome!

queued refresh - sounds good.

note: i looked around the .js file for the html..
question:
in the appearance settings..lets say i put "transparent" in one of the fields - where does this word go; which file? is the field some sort of variable?

Oh, so you could search just transparent logos. Good idea! If thats what it is...

If I make a request for logos, make it on a transparent background.

well u cud if u wanted to - but with this new link, only logos will show up, no other content..
and it may make implementing piclens in search results much easier(not sure)

This value is stored in preference (about:config) variable extensions.fastdial.theme. Then on runtime it's applied to object, representing css. Is this what you're asking about?

How about transparent theme logos only? [http://userlogos.org/search/node/keyword+type%3Alogo+category%3A47]

I want it so when you click find logo, it searches that. How do I do so?

go to:
firefox profile\extensions\fastdial@telega.phpnet.us\chrome\content

open the following file in Notepad or WordPad:
fd.js
(or just fd if extensions are disabled)

Then search for this code:

url = "http://userlogos.org/search/node/" + encodeURIComponent(host + " type:logo");

(line 571)

and change it to:

url = "http://userlogos.org/logos/new?filter0=" + encodeURIComponent(host) + "&filter2=47";

UPDATE: telega, is there, was there,or will there be a function for the Theme field in the Appearance Tab? looks like it could useful

It seems like it just searched normally.
