This is a project I am working on for someone else and should not be seen as a final product in any sense of the word. http://hideref.net/mw/ please give me your comments so far as I will use them to shape the search engine. Thanks alot!
The main idea is already very nice; only the coding has some trouble: there are a lot of white lines on it, which are all misplaced; if you make 1 textbox with the right CSS, that could be fixed tip: padding-left and background-image
I like the clean design! However.. I think it would look nicer if you had the word "Search Engine" somewhere in there so people know what it is..
No offence to the newbies but it's really not helpful to say "but you may need to fix a few odd peices" and "you may to fix a few odd peices".
I really like the look.....nice job. The only thing I would add is a medium gray 1 pixel border around each site thumbnail. Good luck with your project, ED
