I don't like the first one. The second one is good but doesn't convey the "Preview". The third one is too small to read. Could you combine the second and the third, so the icon is the size of the second one, but the IMDb text is slightly raised, with the word Preview from the third one underneath?

Much better. I think the top two are easier to read, although I do like the italics in the bottom ones. I guess my first choice is the top left, since the red stands out better.

Post by Geva Zeichner »

Version: 0.4
Size: 26.2 KB
Date: 2007-03-17
Tested On: Firefox 2.0.0.2
Compatibility: Firefox 1.5 - 2.0.0.*

<a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/downloads/file/13982/imdb_preview-0.4-firefox.xpi">Install v0.4</a>

Changes:
  • Added display options. You can now disable any field you want.
  • Fixed "mini bio" to fit to a recent small change in IMDb layout.
  • You can now change the number of actors and films showing in the preview.
  • Options window now has its very own "apply" button. :)
  • Re-enabled the showing of the loading icon.
  • Fixed bug when birthplace info is available while birthdate is not.
  • Only left clicking the poster will toggle the info div.
  • Loading a preview will now wait for the closure of the previous preview. Thus solving a bug when quickly switching between links.
  • Re-enabled the error sign. The last fix should make this step much less needed.
  • Actor's previews will now be "cleaned" of the previous preview too.
  • Options window now contains a note, referring users to the forum to report IMDb layout changes.
  • The poster displays an optional tooltip for the "toggle info div" feature.
  • Will now also retrieve number of votes and top 250 rank.
  • Replaced the "IPRE" icon to one that includes the words "IMDb Preview" (Thanks for the help guys).
  • Change log can now be viewed from the options window.

Great to hear, thanks!
If you have any new ideas you want for a future version, feel free to ask.
Sorry btw for not yet supporting IMDb Pro. I'll make an effort for it next time I get to work on the extension.

Great work developing the extension Geva.

Unfortunately, pictures are not being shown in the preview again. Hope you can fix this soon.

Cheers.
