BmW,
I did certainly read it, but I was having trouble reproducing that bug. Good news is, I finally figured it out > http://www.google.si/advanced_search?hl=sl. I am happy I can finally help you with that, and I want to give you the update NOW rather than later since you have been patiently waiting for so long (not to mention you're a very helpful user and I am grateful.)

What you want to do is search for this text: // Web: Advanced Search enhancements
We're going to replace the first two major lines (which have the same beginning comment) with these new ones:
/* logo img [hide] */ sIR("BODY > TABLE[width='100%'][style='margin-top: 1em;'] > TBODY > TR:first-child > TD[width='1%']:first-child > A > IMG[width='150'], BODY > FORM[name='f'] > TABLE[width='99%'][cellspacing='2'][cellpadding='0'][border='0'] > TBODY > TR:first-child > TD:first-child > A#logo > SPAN {display:none;}"); /* logo img [insert] */ sIR("BODY > FORM[name='f'] > TABLE[width='99%'][cellspacing='2'][cellpadding='0'][border='0'] > TBODY > TR:first-child > TD:first-child, BODY > TABLE[width='100%'][style='margin-top: 1em;'] > TBODY > TR:first-child > TD[width='1%']:first-child {width:150px !important; height:55px !important; background:transparent url('" + googleLogoBLACK + "') no-repeat scroll 0% !important; font-size:0;}");

This next bit of code just cleans up the color-scheme and makes this page more consistent with the other web-advSearch pages; it's the second to the last line (above 'footer'):
/* top box bg */ sIR("TABLE[width='99%'] > TBODY > TR[bgcolor='#cbdced'] > TD TABLE[width='100%'] > TBODY > TR[bgcolor='#cbdced'], TABLE[width='99%'] > TBODY > TR[bgcolor='#cbdced'] > TD > TABLE[width='100%'] > TBODY > TR[bgcolor='#cbdced'] TD, BODY > FORM[name='f'] > FONT > TABLE > TBODY > TR:first-child > TD:first-child {background-color:#000 !important; color:#ccc !important;}");

Once again, I apologize for making you wait so long, and hope I can better serve you in the days ahead ;)

f3tus,
Being in the giving spirit, I wanted to help you with your small issue before the next release as well.

What you want to search for is // Translate enhancements, then near the bottom of that section look for and replace:
/* result txt */ "DIV#whole .almost_half_cell #result_box, DIV#whole .almost_half_cell #result_box *, #whole #suggesttable #sug_thk {background-color:#000 !important; color:#fff !important;}" +

Of course my friends, you can always email/msg me if you have any troubles. I hope this fixes these problems for both of you and to your liking; always feel free to share any suggestions you may have.
Best regards, Gabe D

@gabedibble
It isnt a big deal and i know i already posted it, but did you read that: http://userscripts.org/topics/35549#posts-180250 :P?

If this would take you too much time to fix you can leave it up for later, cuz i know you have many other more important things to do, but i'm just curious if that can be fixed :P

Cool, the perfect example of why it's great to have helpful people like yourself. I too tried a few stocks, but didn't see that funny little bug. Now that I have a way to reproduce it, you can rest assured that it will be [aesthetically] resolved in the next release! =)

I do appreciate you posting this for me, so I can not only fix it for you but make the experience better for everyone. Thank again and keep up the good work ;)

~GD

Edit [7h later]: OK, I changed my mind---I'm going to help you NOW (rather than later.)

It's actually quite a simple fix.
All you need to do is search for // News Results enhancements, then look down a few lines and remove the whole-line that starts with /* logo img link */ ...

..and that will fix that funny little aesthetic anomaly from Google News of yesteryear. ;) ;)

Thank you for pointing this out, as it would have been very difficult for me to find. I always appreciate the feedback and ideas, so feel free to leave messages anytime.

Best regards,
Gabriel Dibble

OzzyMud,
Sorry about that buddy, I wish I would have had that link to test last night before I hit submit on the v2.9.9 release. But fret not, I shall fix that for you asap in the next version!
Thanx for pointing this out; please hang in there for me and I will get it fixed for you soon!
Best regards,
Gabe D

Edit [7h later]: I didn't like that it was broken so bad that you had to go so far as remove the docs-service, so I wanted to help you fix it as soon as possible!

It's pretty simple: Search for if (location.href.indexOf('//docs.google.') > -1) {
Then add this at the bottom of that section (below 'doc body'):
/* external excluder */ sIR("BODY > DIV#doc-contents {background-color:#fff;}");

And that's it---that will exclude external referencing sites that wouldn't necessarily want the black theme.

(= If there's any other way I can help, just let me know ~GD

f3tus,
Good job finding that white-bg bug, that's a funny little one that I missed so thanks a lot for being so helpful!

BmW,
Good job at finding the contribute bg bug as well (I had clicked that link while developing, but didn't submit so I'm glad you tried it ;)
I really like your large-logo idea and I am going to implement is asap; I wanted to yesterday but after 13h w/o any real breaks, I was a little drained and had to submit all the bug changes leaving that cool new feature for the next [v3] release. I hope you don't mind my friend. I've been putting a lot of thought into it, and have a pretty good plan to implement a good solution everyone will appreciate. So please hang in there a little longer (=

I know I say this a lot, but I do really mean it: I'm very grateful to have such helpful users, and I hope to release a new version soon to make everyone's experience even better!

PEAS

So the translated text doesn't get a white background when you put the mouse over it? Because that's what happens to me...

Btw gabedibble, are you planing to make the google logo bigger, like original one is? :P Just asking (=

@f3tus
Everything works fine by me, the only problem i saw is when you suggest a better translation, then you cant see the text that pops up:

Could you make a small change in Google Translate?

When you hover over the translated text, everything turns white!

Thank you!

Sometimes real life calls, but this script is one of my Great Projects and will not so simply be forgotten. Nor will the comments, criticism, ideas or helpful users like yourself.
I am back my friend, I am back!

1 Bug - 1 Logo issue - 1 suggestion, replied by gabedibble

gabedibble — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 17:37:38 +0000

LfmC,

Thank you for letting me know! I've seen that on different version of FF as well, and have an update coming out today that will fix your problem.

LOL - I know what you mean about the logo over iG themes, it does have a bit of a 'blocky effect' (you crack me up with the 'little sister' analogy.) Yes, I certainly do plan to improve this - it's a fine balance between script size and performance. I do like the idea used on that ^link (not stealing ideas, in fact it's funny because he this-script as a template but w/o (CC)-reference), and will be putting much thought into that/or-new techniques. ;)

BmW,

Thanks for helping point out the 'fix variables' issue. I agree that somethings helps with these sort of things. I'm working on the homepage logo idea you have, and will hopefully have that implemented for you in today's release, or at least [the big upcoming] v3.

Gratefully,
Gabriel D.

I appreciate everyone's patience. I'll probably have a new release out today...shortly now. I hope everyone enjoys it and if you notice anything, feel free to let me know if I can fix it [and of course share ideas] THANX

So what do you think?, replied by gabedibble

Thanks for your patience buddy. I've been away for a bit but have a really great update coming very soon!

A little addition to disable click-tracking, replied by gabedibble

Hey Gringo Guy,

This is great; in fact you saved me some time and reminded me that I wanted to do this for a while now.
Thanks for reading my mind and saving me the effort. This is definitely going into v2.9.9, which will be released shortly.

I really appreciate your help and ideas!

Best regards,

Gabe D

You have a terrific script, thanks. I am finally starting to dig into augmented browsing, and your script is a great introduction for me. Plus it looks absolutely fantastic with the Eclipse Theme for XP.

The other night I was searching for a way to disable click-tracking in the search results, and ran across the CustomizeGoogle plugin for FFox. It has a lot of nice features, but is old and unsupported and parts are broken (now OptimizeGoogle may be picking up support, but they broke filters and haven't fixed click-tracking).

Anyway, here's a short modification that I added to the top of your script. Between your excellent script and the CG plugin (and now no click-tracks), this is getting close to perfectamundo. Keep up the good work!
Ciao,

var arLinks = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
for (var i = 0; i < arLinks.length; i++ ) {
   var elmLink = arLinks[i];
   if ( elmLink.getAttribute("class") == "l" ) {
      elmLink.removeAttribute('onmousedown');
   }
}

p.d. When I can get Super GM working (a.k.a GM with jQuery), *that* will be perfectamundo. Then this will be a one-liner.

p.p.d. Do you think it's a coincidence that I found a lot more results searching how to disable Google's click tracking when I used Yahoo to search than when I used Google? :-/

I have to say i lost my hopes for this script, since it already is a great script, but it could be an awesome script, but i can see you dont have the time for it anymore :P So thanks for the great script and have fun in Real Life!

Are you sure he's working on the script? :P Cuz i have the feeling like he "died" :s So its too bad such a good script wont be "perfect", cuz there would be still small things to be done :)

While he's working on the script, try pressing ^⌥⌘8 on a Mac. It'll reverse all the colors on your screen to produce a similar effect.
