Galeon code for thumbnailing websites (10.00 KB, application/x-compressed-tar)
2006-08-11 07:10 UTC, Diego Escalante Urrelo (not reading bugmail) 		Details

Description Jon Bolt 2006-01-10 19:56:52 UTC 
When browsing the bookmarks either from the menu or the dialog, the user could
be preseneted with a thumbnail of the site, cached either from the last visit,
or rendered on teh fly (this will take a little longer obviously).

One problem with this is the content type will have to be checked to see that it
is html/xhtml not an image of video.

Anyway, I think this would be pretty useful for users.

Galeon code for thumbnailing websites

I found this code somewhere in the Epiphany wiki, I made it work some weeks ago but I haven't been able to do it again, last time it worked it made weird thumbnails with the image cutted and shaked. Weird.

If anyone can help me get this working I would be glad to hack it inside Ephy.

We'd probably use the code from gnome-web-photo for this.

Just noted that you wrote it. I'll have a look at it, I don't know how I missed your last comment.

Don't think we want this anymore.
