GOOGLE's Fade in is FUCKING ANNOYING - a few ways round it
 
1. One blunt solution - use this as your google homepage: http://www.google.com/firefox

2. Use firefox (seems to work right off the bat, otherwise install this script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/63436)

3. Google sort their fucking homepage out. I bet there are less than 1% of web professionals who have fade effects on in windows or any other applications, it wastes time and is irritating.

WTF are they thinking?

VikingMan 12-09-2009 01:58 AM

Yeah I was going to post about the same issue. Very strange that the people at google thought that was somehow a good idea.:Oh crap

garce 12-09-2009 02:05 AM

Thanks for the tip. I can't stand the bloody fade in.

CunningStunt 12-09-2009 03:04 AM

Thx Persius.

Any better solutions for IE?

Semi-Retired-Dave 12-09-2009 02:39 PM

So funny you say this. I hate the fading.

cLin 12-09-2009 02:40 PM

Whoa! When did this fade in come in? I usually use the keyword box or type in my search in the address box so I rarely go to the front page.

Scott McD 12-09-2009 02:42 PM

Yeah been pissing me off too.

What's the purpose of it ??

seeandsee 12-09-2009 02:47 PM

u-Bob 12-09-2009 04:40 PM

slapass 12-09-2009 05:21 PM

I'm guessing it's to make their search form look even more minimalist.

Argos88 12-09-2009 06:30 PM

this and the recent NEWS LIVE Search are really bothering..

also, takes a lot of ram and resources.. two very bad ideas.. wondering if they changed the "new ideas apartment staff" on mountain view.

greetings.

1. One blunt solution - step away from the computer. if this pisses you off you are losing perspective with what it means to be human.

Here:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108

Install that then in tools> add-ons > user styles > write a new style

Go here: http://userstyles.org/styles/1693(copy paste that code in there)


Then if you want a Gray Logo Replacement

go here: http://userstyles.org/styles/1695 (copy paste code in a new style on your firefox)

:thumbsup:thumbsup

CunningStunt 12-10-2009 02:09 AM

That's uncanny Persius, we have exactly the same setup, what are the odds? :1orglaugh

Iron Fist 12-10-2009 02:37 AM

It does the same thing in firefox on their MAIN homepage... no script will kill that shit dead if you disallow google.com

or you can just to go the firefox start page instead, which was mentioned earlier.

nico-t 12-10-2009 03:21 AM

i agree it is a little annoying... definately not an improvement
