New with Screenshots!

Thursday 8 December 2005 - Filed under Trend Sweet Trend

I’ve taken Trend Sweet Trend(retired in 2008) further. Now, you can see screenshots of each link via css rollover. The page takes a little longer to load but I think it looks cool and is at least a little bit stickier.

To do this, I created a script that submits urls to Browsershots and later checks to see if they’re done. Then I store the images on my server and use css to display them next to each link. The lightweight version of TST is still available here.

I want to thank Johann Rocholl at Browsershots for his help in getting this to work and for making such a cool web service.
