A very simple little toolbar for your hotlinks 0-9. 
Those defined under [b]Tools/Hotlinks...[/b], not the opera hotLIST, which I tend to confuse all the time due to that almost identic name!! ;-)

[b]Example [/b]for a customized hotlinks-bar:
[img]http://two.xthost.info/siria/km/km_hotlinks-bar/myhotlinks-example.png[/img]
hotlink-0: kmeleon.sourceforge.net/forum
hotlink-1: translate.google.com            (e.g. for translating own text before posting it in foreign forum)
hotlinks-2+3: Another two of my frequent sites, don't have own icons, so I just "painted" something ;-)
hotlinks-4-9:  Either not defined, or they are but didn't feel like painting own icons, or can remember what number is what page ;-)

------------------------

[b]Those are the plain number bars, just right-click one and "Save as...":[/b]

Buttons 16x11..16, as flat as the klassic privacy bar:

[img]http://two.xthost.info/siria/km/km_hotlinks-bar/myhotlinks2__numbers-normal-italic__wide16_high-min11.bmp[/img]

Buttons 16x13..16, as flat as the Phoenity privacy bar:
[img]http://two.xthost.info/siria/km/km_hotlinks-bar/myhotlinks3__numbers-in-box__wide16_high-min13.bmp[/img]

Buttons 12x11..16, narrow numbers to save space:
[img]http://two.xthost.info/siria/km/km_hotlinks-bar/myhotlinks4__extra-narrow__wide12_high-min11.bmp[/img]

Buttons 20x15..20, for adding extra big icons

.
(Don't wonder, that green line isn't shown if you set the height smaller) 
A click on the [b]little arrows at the end opens the settings page[/b], where you can enter your hotlinks and define if they shall open in a new window. A right-click on any hotlink leads to the settings for hotlinks, mouse gestures etc.

[b]HOW TO INSTALL:[/b]
- Put one of the pics above [b]in the folder of your skin[/b], and rename it to myhotlinks.bmp
(Or download the zip that is attached at the bottom of this post, includes a readme-file, and extract it into your skin folder)
- Make a safety copy of your toolbar.cfg (same folder), then add the text below into the original cfg (any text editor, like notepad)
- Restart K-Meleon (and maybe the KM-loader, if you use that one)

If the toolbar isn't there yet, click on View/Toolbars to switch it on.
If you prefer one of the other hotlink-pics (with a different size), rename that one to myhotlinks.bmp, then update the toolbar size in the toolbars.cfg, this line: &Hotlinks 0-9(width,height){
If you prefer using your own icons or whatever, look at the bottom of this text for more info

[b]---------------- CUSTOMIZING, if you prefer  ----------------[/b]

optional: [b]SHOW/HIDE MORE BUTTONS:[/b]
	Simply remove or add # at the buttons in the cfg file.

optional: [b]CHANGE TOOLTIPS (text when mouse hovering over button):[/b]
	Change the line below "macros(hotlink(x))". EXAMPLE:

Hotlink-0{
	macros(hotlink(0))|Settings
	Hotlink-0: K-Meleon Forum  (or write whatever you like in this line)
	myhotlinks.bmp[0]
	myhotlinks.bmp[0]
	}

optional: ---------------- [b]OTHER ICONS[/b] ----------------

You can change those simple number icons and add your own ones, e.g. pretty website-icons. 
Those are most likely higher than those number-pics, so you may need to update the height in the toolbar.cfg : 
&Hotlinks 0-9(width,height){

To change a dull number icon into something prettier, take a screenshot from your favorite website to get their icon, then edit it in MS Paint and play around with it, until you like it and it doesnt get bigger then 16x16 (normal) or 20x20 (extra big). Or invent an own one. Then paste it into your myhotlinks.bmp, replacing the number as defined in your hotlinks. 
Of course the size is completely free, just remember if you expand the WIDTH you must adapt all other buttons too. 
The HEIGHT is less critical, if an icon is higher than the toolbar setting in the cfg-file, the lower part seems to get ignored by the browser :-)[/quote]
