Could you give us the URL for the google so we can add a new custom search engine named something and use it?
The reason why I'm asking is that I would like use google.se instead of google.com.

What are the dimentions that the icons should have in order to be displayed correctly? Is there a chance that you would give us the chance to get the original icons so we can use them with a custom search engine?
(I have no idea on how to extract/copy them from console...)

The search url is not the problem... you can find it like on every other custom search engine.
e.g. for google.se the Url is:
http://www.google.se/#hl=sv&source=h...ef8f3a8f393d79

and the search query is: n900

But don't make the mistake to name the custom engine google! It will really mess up badly with the original google engine.

hey man, first off: thanks for this, I use it on a daily basis.

question: is it possible to add an option to choose either colour or black&white for the widget? previous versions made it black&white when opacity was lowered to zero, the current one doesnt, which is a little regrettable since it works so well with my desktop when b&w.

pretty please with sugar on top?

Icon size is 122x40. However, in TouchSearch 3, adding custom search engines is no longer supported (if you've upgraded).

Your welcome!

Ah, yes, I did remove the "Color" or "Ghosted" icon option -- but there is a method to my madness.

In TouchSearch 3, search engine addons are now supported, meaning you can go right to http://www.touchsearch.org/addons/ and browse and install additional search engines from there. I plan on making many more addons to provide more utility to TouchSearch.

However, this came at a cost: no longer can the user manually create search engines (this was always complicated, and could seriously break TouchSearch if a mistake was made), and I also removed the "Ghosted" option.

I did this because each Ghosted icon needed to be made separately in e.g. Photoshop, and was quite time consuming. Since I planned on making a lot of addons, I needed to lighten up the options a bit.

Sorry if this messes up the look of your desktop!

@ all:

I have only uploaded TouchSearch 3 to extras-devel but will be promoting it to -testing soon.

I'll make a new thread and blogpost explaining more about it when I do.
