Hi. First of all - GREAT ADDON !
Love it so far.

Just on the visit of some pages which have a loadingscreen (loading bar etc. 
like "Google Gmail"

The result is that in such cases i have a "non representative Tilescreen. Not 
good.. :-(

All current version (Chrome and Fauxbar).

Suggestion: Maybe a configurable timer would be nice :-)
Or just check if site is still loading (timer is easier to implement).

Ah..btw. I know there is a "automatic" and a "manual" mode for the tileset but 
i still kind of miss some "flexibility" in the automatic mode (like the fast 
deleting which orig chrome client has, because it shows me all the crap for 
ages i once visited sometimes).
Maybe a rightclick option [dont show this URL as tab] or something.

Conclusio: Flexibility and configuration is good, but keep it as simple as 
possible. In the faith of good old google ^^

Peace.

Agreed, needs work. Sounds like issue #66. Currently, Fauxbar captures a 
screenshot if Chrome says the page has finished loading, but this does not 
account for further Ajax scripting, like with Gmail, Facebook, and Twitter.

One idea is to add a right-click context menu option like, "Fauxbar: Add this 
page as tile", or "Fauxbar: Update this page's tile thumbnail now", and to not 
have screenshots be taken automatically, as an option.

So you'd just visit a webpage, right-click the page, and choose an option to 
take a screenshot.

Re: Tile flexibility - please add a star to issue #91 :)
