so after a suggestion was made on this thread I decided that I would look for a way to make one myself and I did. I first released the toolbar to download on that thread, but I decided to make an official thread for the unofficial toolbar in this section since it seemed like the most appropriate place to place the thread. If you want a preview of the toolbar it is shown on the page where you can download it, and the features it has are two RSS readers for the new games and armor blog, links to each section of the community, links to useful guides in the forums, links to all the popular games, a search engine with preferences to Armor Games(it still needs improvement) as well as a simple link to the home page. Hope you guys like.

You can preview and download the toolbar here

Wow, that's pretty awesome xD. Unfortanutely I don't use IE, Firefox, or Safari. Do you think the Safari one might work in Google Chrome? Or does Google Chrome not allow tool bars.

actually I never noticed this, but I don't think Google Chrome does have tool bars, but why do you use Google Chrome? Its barely compatible with a lot of things on the internet and all of its features have been duplicated into add-on's that are downloadable on Firefox.

Thank you crimsonblade! I must say it's an awesome toolbar! Good thing I use IE, Firefox, and Safari... just have to find one for Opera and Chrome! Lol... I don't know why I have so many browsers?

I don't think Google Chrome allows other toolbars or addons, but haven't tried it, so who knows?

(btw this is my 1000th forum post, heheh...)

hmm actually I have myself a collection of 6 browsers(including one called flock) but the only ones that are ever used on this computer are IE and Firefox, and my parents are the ones who use IE, I never touch the browser. I only use Firefox, unless I find a use for one of the others. Well anyways glad you like the toolbar.

I noticed you used a bell pepper for community? Why?
Also, I am (attempting)installing it now! Thanks.

Crimson, you finished. That's great. I would install it, but I don't see much uses on it for me.

Well now, I can more talk about it. Do you think you could have a different background think for the aG logo, because it's sort of distracting having a black box mixed in with a bunch of grey. Also, how do the sections update like the new games thing, do you do it, or is it automatically updated? Also is it possible to get DDX's forum search to be the official search there? And is it in anyway possible to have a spellcheck on it, so I can make it my only tool bar so I don't need the google one? Anyways, Good work with it, pretty good design except the AG logo! But the search seems weird... The results page is kind of...Uhm, different? It's hard to explain.

Cool. I got it downloaded. Takes up even more space on my webpages though. Oh well, not as bad as my moms.

DDX's forum search would be great to put on, but a few things. 1. Is it possible? 2. Will DDX give permission?

I already have a google toolbar and a web developer's toolbar. AG's toolbar would really fill it up. I'd rather have it as a sidebar :O

Not sure if it's possible.

And I'm sure he would, why wouldn't he?

[quote] but why do you use Google Chrome?


It's a lot faster. Back when I used IE I never used the tool bars that much anyway, so it's not a big loss.

I've never made one...but it seems like it should be possible. DDX is pretty cool, I'm sure he would. I don't think it would be a big deal.
