The transparent background problem was fixed, but the logo can't preserve aspect ratio now.
I'm using firefox 6.0.

I am having a problem using logos in Fast Dial.

I can use .jpg logos just fine. However, when I try to use a .png file it just loads the website screenshot. If I switch to a .jpg it works fine, but the second I switch back to a .png file it just does the website screenshot.

I am using Firefox 6 (I had the problem on 5 as well, I updated hoping it would help) on Windows XP SP3.

I have searched and googled around for a solution to this the past day or so with no results. Please help!

Thanks!

Hey there, chiaroscuro.

Just pointing out that Fast Dial 3.5.1 appears to be broken on Firefox 7 beta [Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0]

The version I got was a beta candidate (7.0b1) from the ftp server, but yeah. Checking in the Error Console, I see this error thrice:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "'Illegal value' when calling method: [nsILivemarkService::getFeedURI]" nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://fastdial/content/bookmark.js :: :: line 89" data: no]

I'll do some snooping around in there and see if I can fix it...

Edit:
I reinstalled for the heck of it, and now I just one error instead of three:

Thanks for your helpful feedback with error console messages clearly described.
I will pass this information on

As a matter of curiosity was this same error visible in a new Profile with only Fast Dial running

many thanks

3.51 doesn't work on 7.0 beta.
Only see the background, can't display anything else

I've uninstalled FF7 now, so I can't check. But since the error referred to an illegal value for a variable in Fast Dial's own files, I'd assume it should happen on a new profile as well.

Solving the problem in FF 7.0

Delete this line in file bookmark.js
89 - var feedURI = livemarkService.getFeedURI(item.itemId);
100 - feed: feedURI && feedURI.spec,

They create a problem with running Fast Dial.

I was wondering how I'd modify the file to make it work, didn't occur to me that you could just delete them. >_< Thanks for the workaround, will try tomorrow.
