February 13, 2010 at 11:08Idea: Special Meta Tag for Speed Dial
I think many users of the Opera browser use the so-called "Speed Dial" in their work. The thing is no doubt comfortable.
When adding a site to Speed Dial Opera takes a screenshot of it, cramming it into a resolution of 1024x768. However, sometimes it’s more convenient to have not a screenshot of the site, but a special picture (site logo, for example). It is simple to make such a replacement to the owner of the browser, they already wrote about it on Habré .
For the owner of the site, there is also a way to make a version of the site specifically for Speed Dial : Layout for kizu's Opera Speed Dial .
I invite the glorious Opera developers to make it possible to specify a picture for Speed Dial using the link tag. Just as the site icon for iPhone / iPod is indicated:
If such a tag is detected, Opera will not take a screenshot, but will copy the image from the href attribute.
UPD: solution for all browsers:
