If you're frustrated by something that doesn't look right or is really bothering you, don't just uninstall or do something harsh...

All you have to do is shoot me a quick message in the forum or send me an email and I will do my best to fix it for you as quickly as I can.


Please understand that there are too many Google service sites to view and test with every release (think about all different services, then multiply that by how many countries there are on Earth; then there's also multi-browser support.) I really do my best to test everything I can think of with each release, but ultimately there is probably some page or site that I missed which needs some attention.

That's where I rely on my users. Please help me help you. I really am here to make everyone happy, so do not hesitate to contact me if you need anything!!

As a friend notified me, I am currently working on a fix for the "logo over special-logo" issue (not to mention expansion and enhancement of g.Docs...)

Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm on top of it and will have some great updates coming for you very soon!

PEAS,

Edit (2009 10 07): Special Logo bug fixed (with some snazzy conditional evals) ~EN JOY`

@gebedibble
The logo is white :P it should be black :) im talking about www.google.si page (slovenia)

PS: Check this addon -> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/...
It makes all the logos black (dont ask me how :P), so maybe you can find a way to do this :P

But i want to say, that your really doing a good job and i know its hard to do massive users happy, so i'm patience, cuz i know you have a real life too and you cant read comments 24/7 and fix everything right away, so take your time by fixing this :P Thanks again for a very nice script :)

see i had no idea about the slovenia google logo problem
thank you for pointing this out, now i can help you and others with the same type of problems in their own locality. i'm always happy to find new site-templates to fix up because i know there are always other local-homepages that have the same problem; so i am thankful for you pointing this out

i really appreciate your kind words and understanding. that being said, i will do my best to get this fixed for you as soon as possible in the next release. ;) ;)

One user recently had a problem where the 'auto-update notification' would not go away, and for some very strange reason was inserting that text into web mails (i would guess on gmail, maybe in basic html view -- though let me state first-and-foremost that these is not and never will be any code with that [very negative] functionality.)
< In Every-way I absolutely Respect your Privacy! >

I've seen this problem before, which has nothing to do with this script but instead with the browser's offline internal storage. This script currently saves only two variables which are the date-time & the version of the last-check, as to only check for an update once-per-day. Sometimes this variable can [somehow] become corrupted, and then the script tries to read the [corrupted] variable and keeps showing the update notification (the red box at the top right of the browser screen.) I do humbly apologize for this annoyance, though I can take no blame in it. I do however always and immediately help users who have this problem, and will gladly repeat this support for anyone who has any problem.


All you have to do to Fix this [or Any script's corrupt-variable] is:

  1. Right-click the Greasemonkey-icon and select 'Manage User Scripts...'
  2. Select the script, put a checkmark in the 'Also uninstall associated preferences' and then click 'Uninstall'
  3. Then simply reinstall the script and the problem will be solved
I want to proactively promote both this problem/solution and my ever-supportive nature. Please feel free to contact me in this forum or via email at any time!

Best regards, gabedibble

So i noticed another problem :P When i search for something in Google (Web) i get an ugly logo xD see screenshot:

PS: The logo by other categories are fine (Pictures and others) only the Web (1st one) is the problem :) I'm using google.si ;)

Thanks BmW!

I've seen this on other g.Web-search sites recently, and now it looks like this change has migrated to google.si

I wanted to help you fix this problem as soon as humanly possible, and before I release the next update (so you can have a good experience in the mean-time.) The following code will be included in the next release; you and anyone else that sees this thread can have it now. Go into 'Manage User Scripts', select my script and hit Edit (C:\WINDOWS\notepad.exe is a decent editor ~ all I need), and then look for this heading:

// Google Search Results Page enhancements

We're going to replace the first "/* logo */" selector with this new line:

/* logo */ "BODY#gsr > DIV#header > FORM#tsf > TABLE#sft > TBODY > TR > TD > H1 > A#logo > IMG, BODY > SPAN#main > DIV#header > DIV#sform > FORM#tsf > TABLE#sft > TBODY > TR > TD:first-child > H1 > A#logo > IMG, BODY > SPAN#main > DIV DIV#sform > FORM#tsf > TABLE#sft > TBODY > TR[valign='top'] > TD[style='padding-right: 8px;'] > H1 > A#logo > IMG, BODY#gsr > DIV#cnt > FORM#tsf > TABLE#sft > TBODY > TR[valign='top']:first-child > TD:first-child > H1 > A#logo > IMG, BODY > SPAN#main > DIV > DIV#cnt > DIV#sform > FORM#tsf > TABLE#sft:first-child > TBODY > TR[valign='top']:first-child > TD:first-child > H1 > A#logo > IMG {display:none;}" +

This should fix your problem. If you need any help or anything else, do not hesitate to ask.

I'm always happy to help!

Thanks for the script, your continued vigilance in keeping it updated & fixing bugs and sharing it with all of us.

Also thanks for the code snippit/fix posted above (10-13-09@4:56pm) fixing the google logo search page. I noticed the bug right away but figured I'd wait awhile to say anything figuring that it was already known about; but after still not seeing the "auto update" pop-up I figured I'd meander on over here and mention it. Low and behold there is your 'fix' post! :D w00t
Keep up the good work!

PS> As to the person's post above mine I don't see that same 'bug' using the current release or after adding the code added above.

Could you make a small change in Google Translate?

http://translate.google.com/#en|it|Hello!

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

Thank you!

 
BmW User
FirefoxWindows

Finally a new version (=

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:

 
f3tus User
FirefoxWindows

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

 
gabedibble Script's Author

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
~Gabe

@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

 
gabedibble Script's Author

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

I think Google did some changes and the script looks weird now :P can we expect a version 3 script? :P

 
Hawksoul09 User

The script no longer operates properly.
(some thinks are still in white background with black letters)
Gross !!! (the contrast hurts my eyes) - (fix it please) ~

 
gabedibble Script's Author
FirefoxWindows

BmW; Hawksoul09; others,

I am glad you mentioned this; I also noticed it and made you all a quick-fix (before the next release, so you can keep enjoying the dark theme)

What you want to do is replace the following lines with these new lines below.
Edit the script source and search for // iGoogle Homepage enhancements, then simply replace this first-line with these two new lines:
/* header */ "#guser,#guser *,#gbar,#gbar *, #ghead {background-color:transparent !important; font-family:Trebuchet MS,Verdna !important; color:#ccc;}" +
/* search options boxes */ "#sbl, .fade {background-color:transparent !important;}" +

...and that should fix it for you

Of course, if you find anything else that looks funky, please just let me know and I will fix it for you ASAP!

Best regards, GD

Since google changed google translate a little, i discovered some things again, its nothing serious but here they are:
1) The 2 options up there are over the logo, when you select the 2nd option, the text is same color as backgrund (same as it was before when you suggested a better translation):

2) At the first page of google translate (both options), there is a text that is not visible, cuz it is black, i think it should be white with this theme :P

---
And i just noticed i dont have Google logo under pictures tab anymore
