How to add Dyxum Lens Review Search to Firefox

Thanks to view profile

This might be of interest to my fellow eBay addicts who spend a lot of time reading
reviews on Dyxum.com while looking for bargains. The steps below
will allow you to add a custom search to the built in search bars in
Firefox or Internet Explorer 7. This is just a tip, I don't endorse or make any guarantees of
any kind with this. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

To do this I went to this site: http://ready.to/search/en/#

Entered the following:

1) Search Name: "Dyxum"

2) Front of Search: www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=

3) Back of Search: +site%3Adyxum.com&btnG=Search

4) Description: Dyxum Lens Reviews

F-16 Thunderbirds: taking off and afterburner is on!

I use the surround land and trees to give you a sense of perspective. You cant tell how fast he was going, but i hope that the land gives you a sense of urgency that he was taking off in a big hurry! You can see the fire shooting out of the exhaust and the heat trail behind that. He is only about 30 feet off the ground and is giving it some major power to take off at that pitch.

F-16 Thunderbirds: Artistic blur 1.1

The flight crews were lined up to assist the pilot. I thought that an out of focus shot would be nice or interesting. By Me placing them out of focus, i tried to divert the attention and seriousness of the act that was happening and also to make it more surreal about what was going to happen.
