Custom homepage

Thought this was kinda cool.. All you do is pick a background(or upload your own) and click the option to set as your homepage. It uses google.

Isn't this almost the same as using iGoogle?

EDIT: Nevermind, it doesn't let you choose a background, as it seems...

Yeah AFAIK iGoogle is much more limited. Most things that allow you to create a custom homepage require you to be signed in to your Google account.

I can probably whip up a more advanced PHP one that can input more advanced searches and shit. Probably have a process.php, index.html, and style.css where you can comstumize it and make it supaC00l

Ok here's mine:

Code: (html) [Select]
<html>
<title>net.explore</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="homepage.css" />
<body>
<center>
<p>The Network</p>
<br />
<form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search">
<input onfocus="this.value=''" type="text"   name="q" size="45"
 maxlength="255" value="get lost in the net" />
<input type="submit" value="Explore" />
</form>
</center>
</body>
</html>

The css:

Code: (css) [Select]
p{ color: white; font-size: 30px; font-family: neuropolitical; }

body{
    background: url(/path/to/my/pic.jpg);
    background-attachment: fixed;
    background-position: 27% 27%;
}

And here's what it looks like:
