Well, on Sunday I came across a nifty site showing how to make your own toolbar icons, linking to websites. iPoding, The Apple Collection, and other sites have already made some, so I figured why not, and made one for the 68KMLA Forums.http://homepage.mac.com/captainz/68KMLA_IETR/ Instructions: 1) Click URL above 2) Drag graphic into desired location in toolbar Removal: Command-Drag the icon to the trash Enjoy! ------------------ Captain Z - Mobile Operations Commander 68K Macintosh Liberation Army 23 68K Macs Liberated Visit Captain Z's Starbase of EV Stuff |

We can have a great big browser debate if you want... Anyway, I don't like Mozilla, it's too slow and ugly.~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit Mayor of NuBus City v3.0

can't we make a Netscape skin? Or am I the only one using Netscape? Why does everybody hate Netscape so much? I'm confused about this. Or is the Linux version of Netscape just better than the rest? hmmm.... IMHO, Netscape was crap in Windows.... It was slow to load and everything.... The same version works like a wonder in Linux, and looks good too. damn Windows.(i use i686 Linux with Netscape 7.0) _________________ Leutennant SCCHICAGO HotLine:scchicago.homeip.net Website(closed):http://scchicago.homeip.net Forum: http://scchicago.homeip.net/forum |

There was a demand, so I supplied. I updated the link with some new stuff. There will be a new toolbar icon style made later tonight or tomorrow, and there is one linked to the active.asp page now. quote: can't we make a Netscape skin? Or am I the only one using Netscape?

It may be possible to do, but because I abandoned Netscape 2 years ago, I have no need to make one. The instructions on how to make the IE ones are here: http://homepage.mac.com/sergeidoc/IETR/ Maybe the instructions can be adapted to NS4, NS6, or NS7, but I don't know. ------------------ Captain Z - Mobile Operations Commander 68K Macintosh Liberation Army 23 68K Macs Liberated Visit Captain Z's Starbase of EV Stuff |

If you ask me, all browsers in the world suck. Here's why:MSIE - Microsoft makes it, so it sucks. Netscape 4 - Renderer has issues, so it sucks. Proprietary interface. Netscape 6/7 - USE THE NATIVE OS INTERFACE. Skins suck. Slow. Mozilla - Same as Netscape 6/7. iCab - Renderer has issues. Opera - Ads suck. ====================== Current Macs: iMac G4 (main mac) PowerMac 7300/180 (server) PowerMac 6100/66 (no monitor!) Quadra 610 (no monitor!)

The icons don't work for me in IE 5.2 in OS X...they just make a normal little link in the toolbar, not a picture...{ candyPunk } { Captain of Observation, 68k MLA } { 68k Macs liberated: 3} { My baby: Q660av } |

Are you dropping it in the Button Bar or Favorites Bar? If you drop it on the favorites bar, it creates a favorite like normal. If you drop it on the button bar, you get the picture.http://homepage.mac.com/captainz/68KMLA_IETR/toolbar_example.jpg ------------------ Captain Z - Mobile Operations Commander 68K Macintosh Liberation Army 23 68K Macs Liberated Visit Captain Z's Starbase of EV Stuff |

Download Mozilla again (v1.2 alpha) and then do a Custom Install. Turn off everything except for the Navigator part. Then install it. It will load twice as fast.====================== Current Macs: iMac G4 (main mac) PowerMac 7300/180 (server) PowerMac 6100/66 (no monitor!) Quadra 610 (no monitor!)
