1. I'm not autistic.
2. I type address in the address bar.
3. I use bookmarks.

Most startpages are just features already in the browser, but done again. Yours isn't an exception.
>>
Same reason I don't use a wallpaper: I'm not a retard who stares at a useless background or homepage instead of actually, you know, doing stuff.
>>
about:blank
>>
I can't into programming or hypertext markup or whatever. I could make a realllly basic site that's just text on a blank page, probably, but I never learned CSS or anything fancy like that. I'd either have to steal the source from an anon or learn a lot to do it, and honestly I don't really even want a home page. I just restore previous tabs anyway. I keep a tab pinned for any sites I go to regularly.

People use their web browsers to access new content on the internet.

Your homepage is neither on the internet, nor contains any content of interest.

Thus it's useless, it's sole purpose it to show it to other anons on an online anime message board.

Might as well make a blog.

3. I use bookmarks.

If only there were a way to create a custom homepage that visually organizes bookmarks.

For instance in the morning I have a few websites I like to check every day. (web comics and such) Would be nice if I could have a home page that'd display time and local weather and have a button that'd open all my favorite web-comics in separate tabs with 1 click.

What year is this, 2002

It was a sequential list, not the one with options.

You're the opposite of 1. Heavy scheduling is common in autistic people.
Plus, bookmark folders exist; just one click more.

Nothing beats ChrOpera's new tab page.

>Unlike Chrome, it instantly opens.
>Focus on the address bar for instant search.
>All my bookmarks already accessible on the new tab, sorted, and organized on folders.
>It looks fucking sexy.

Also, on Firefox and Chrome, custom new tab pages load a moment after the new tab page starts loading, which is a bit underwhelming.

note that the image path is relative to the directory of the html file.

you can add some style info to the img tag.
style="width:width;height:height;"


or use css

sometimes humans make things that are fun and cool, enjoyable and good, yet not the most strictly efficient solution to a problem.

sometimes one human prefers to do a thing one way, and another human prefers to do it another way.

sometimes it's ok to not agree about a thing.

lets all try to remember these helpful tips, and be good to each other.

thanks. =)

I don't have one of these homepages but I'll say that I used to hoard bookmarks and they slow the shit of your browser. Exporting and deleting my bookmarks made it almost feel like I was on a different computer.
