This doesn't work & I tried what Joserhdez said & that didn't work either! =( Oh well.

replace:
result_link_xpath: "//*[(name() = 'DIV' and @class='g') or (name() = 'H3' and @class='sem')]/H2/A",
with:
result_link_xpath: "//*[(name() = 'LI' and @class='g') or (name() = 'H3' and @class='r')]/A",

Does anybody know of a way to make this work with Pagerization script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/7623

Very nice script, I used to use better search but I'm switching to this.
I use GoogleMonkeR for the 'results in collums' and 'auto-load more results' functioalities but apprarently no google-search-thumbnailer supports auto-loading so I modified your script(one line actually) and added it to googlemonker. Now I have auto-reload + collunm results + thumbnails =).

Here's th emodified googlemonker: http://cluebin.appspot.com/pasted/442

Please add this code to support counter:
line 96: thumbnail.innerHTML = i + 1 + '. ' +

I highly recommend using this script with my Google Mod:
Google i&Search Dark + Enhancements (http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/11888)

I'd completely forgotten about this script. I still had it installed, but it obviously wasn't doing much to my google results anymore. I made a couple of minor tweaks and it appears to be working pretty well again.

@schmancy47 I just bumped up my result limit to 30 to test your bug, and this latest version worked fine past result #10. Let me know if you still see a problem.

Having made my own - including our own screenshot service - this one presents "rotated" images ( 45 degree shifted ).

Fantastic script. However, it doesn't seem to continue to generate thumbnails if the default number of results is higher than 10--after the first 10 results, the next results on the page have no thumbnail next to them.

I can't seem to get this to work. By the way, to make this an exact clone of Google Preview, they store the thumbnails in this format http://j.googlepreview.com/preview?s=http://www...

The j subdomain stands for the first letter in the URL domain (j = jimcarreyonline)
And obviously after the = is the base URL.

Nice scirpt, I like it very much, however this script does not 100% competible with "google link preview"(http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/3784).
It would be good it both can work nicely together.
The problem is when both script are enabled. This script will generate thumbnails twice for each link on the page.

 
J-Mac User

Excellent script! Thanks, chezar, for the alexa comment - works perfectly now.

 
chezar User

Some changes on alexa.com made this script to not show many thumbshots, to fix the script edit it.
changing this: http://thumbnails.alexa.com/
to this: http://pthumbnails.alexa.com/

Rick I love this script, I wish you can mantain it more often.
