Build: FireFox Search bars

Well it has been a while since I've last posted something so I thought I would add a small project that I had just recently finished. I've all ways been disappointed that for FireFox there has never been a search bar for google images. Sometimes I'd just rather look up images of something rather then look it up on google. So I though hey why don't I just make my own search bar plug in. So I looked around and this article on the Mozilla site really help you understand how to program the search bars. I've actually made two search bars, one for google images and one that searches google for GBA Roms. A digital copy of a game that you can play if your have a corresponding emulator. Anyways the GBA Search and the Google Images Search can be found there to download. Pretty impressed that the google images has been downloaded so far 100 times in 3 days and that the GBA search has be download 20 times. Pretty easy to program one yourself but I would help to know XML. Anyways I encourage everyone to try to make one themselves, download the two that I have made and to review the ones I made so that I can make them public and not just experimental. Keep building.

Build: Electronic picture frames

I found this very cool guide for turning your old laptops in a digital picture frame that you can post of your wall. Doesn't seem like it's that complicated of a build but what I really think that is interested about is that he found thin power cords that match the colour of his wall. It's very difficult to detect the cables, unless you are looking for them.Electronic picture frames have gotten pretty cheap recently but still a cool idea for any old laptops laying around the house. The entire build can be found here. Keep on building.
