(I was actually more worried about the whole thing not working than about waiting a few days.) Anyway, now I'm back to the current show. </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/add-art-for-firefox-3-released#post-129 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 23:54:24 +0000 Steve 129@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>oops, I forgot a step. Updated above. You'll want to set the 'currentImageSet' to 1 as well. Sorry for the trouble. New show comes out on Thursday if you want to be lazy! </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/we-might-have-a-solution-re-ff3#post-127 Mon, 22 Sep 2008 23:49:48 +0000 Steve 127@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>you are right.

Tell the world! </p> <p>Note about this release, you will see Charles Broskoski's Black Monochrome Painting show when you update. I did this because it's the smallest show. If you want the most current art it will be updated on September 25th, 2008. If you don't want to wait, you can also go to about:config, filter for add-art and set the expiration to 1 and the currentImageSet to 1. Then open a new window and you will start downloading the most current show. </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/we-might-have-a-solution-re-ff3#post-118 Sun, 21 Sep 2008 04:14:59 +0000 Steve 118@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>And we do.

Although I'm not a back end web developer, I'm going to point friends who are to this project. Ad blockers have been around for a long time, but none with as solid of collaborative filters AND art! What could be better? </p> <p>(oh. yea. getting it to work in FF3 and IE...)</p> <p>Best, and thanks for this amazing work. </p> <p>seej </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/so-ff3-and-add-art#post-99 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 12:33:21 +0000 Spanktacular 99@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>I wish I did. </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/so-ff3-and-add-art#post-98 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 12:11:21 +0000 Steve 98@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>Sorry, I've been traveling a bit. I have been in touch with the Pro Web Surfer folks, but hadn't thought about talking to them about this. Good idea. We also have some clues to follow up on. Spanktacular, if you know anything about XUL I'd love to talk... </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/so-ff3-and-add-art#post-97 Wed, 30 Jul 2008 06:04:37 +0000 Spanktacular 97@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>Yeah...</p> <p>So, I was thinking.

E.g., on the NY Times site, the background is white, so the spaces are white. I can see that an ad is still "there" because my mouse cursor changes and the URL is for an ad. (I didn't click it, though. Don't really want to see the ad!)</p> <p>I am looking at the same sites that I was looking at before. I have not only restarted but rebooted.</p> <p>Firefox 2.0.0.15<br /> Adblock Plus 0.7.5.5<br /> add-art 0.7.0</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Linda </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-77 Wed, 09 Jul 2008 10:27:14 +0000 madtho 77@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>I have broken images (not the intended black boxes).<br /> I've restarted a few times now.<br /> any clues?</p> <p>Mac OS 10.4.11<br /> Firefox 2.0.0.15<br /> Add Art 0.7.0 </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-76 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 23:55:13 +0000 Morisato 76@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>Oh, alright then.

Feel the minimalism.</p> <p>@Morisato - the art is chosen by the curators. Each curator has different ideas about how it should work with the browsing experience. Some work with it, some work against it, some work alongside... </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-74 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:05:49 +0000 redtaperecorder 74@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>if i'm not mistaken, the art looks like black 'empty spaces' because it's supposed to, right? that's the whole idea behind the black monochrome paintings, correct? </p> <p>if i'm not correct, i'd love for you to let me know because that would mean that my add-art didn't update either...</p> <p>- redtape </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-73 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 16:06:24 +0000 Morisato 73@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>Not trying to be rude and all, would be nice Steve if you sort of stuck to the artsy images than a random image from some tv. Only reason why I mention this is because when your browsing and having all those ads replaced by that one image you've chosen, it sort of destroys the whole outlook of the whole page.</p> <p>Vue des Alpes curated by Sara Cook and Hiroshige's One Hundred Famous Views of Edo were pefect since they are actually art art.</p> <p>Screenshots from The Computer Chronicles (resized and cropped) on the other hand made the whole page of whichever one your viewing look disasterous in a way. Just try and see for yourself if you go to a site with some ads and you'll know what I mean. I just meant to say to choose more mellow pictures that blend in with the/a site rather that make it obtrusive. </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-72 Mon, 07 Jul 2008 17:38:11 +0000 Steve 72@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>what version of firefox are you running? What version of the plugin is installed - double check. Did you try restarting? Are you getting blank spaces, black spaces, or broken images? </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-71 Mon, 07 Jul 2008 17:21:40 +0000 Linda 71@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>Hi,<br /> With the new show, I'm not seeing ANYTHING in place of ads. There are just empty spaces there now, but I saw the art of the previous shows. Any idea why this is happening?<br /> Thanks,<br /> Linda</p> <p>p.s. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE the whole add-art idea. I was using adblock before, but this is even better. I'm all for putting more art into the world, whether the physical or the virtual world! </p> http://forum.add-art.org/topic/new-art-new-features-update-to-070#post-70 Thu, 03 Jul 2008 15:31:20 +0000 Steve 70@http://forum.add-art.org/ <p>Version 0.7.0 was released today!</p> <p><strong>NEW ART</strong><br /> This show is curated by Charles Broskoski, "Black Monochrome Paintings Cropped and Optimized for the Web." Charles found monochrome paintings by modern masters like Rauchenberg, Kelly, Malevich, Marden, Reinhardt, and Rothko. Because they've been optimized for the web, you can no longer see any of the details in the paintings. In fact, they're so optimized our last show was some 7mb, this one is 64KB. </p> <p>here's a screenshot:<br /> <a href="http://add-art.org/files/broskoski/miami-herald.png" rel="nofollow">http://add-art.org/files/broskoski/miami-herald.png</a></p> <p><strong>NEW FEATURE</strong><br /> This release includes a new feature masterminded by Ethan Ham. You no longer need to update the whole add-on to get new art. When a new show is released, Add-Art will automatically download the images in the background and alert you when new art has been delivered. It will still come every two weeks, but you won't need to download a whole update. Just click "ok" when the dialog box appears and restart firefox and you'll start seeing new images. From now on, we'll only need to release updates when we make changes to the add-on.</p> <p><strong>Firefox 3 </strong><br /> We're still working on getting Add-Art working in firefox 3.
