to my great amusement and fear i saw this while trying to make my custom google search thingie:

"max 50x50px"

WHAT?

do you have any idea how SMALL that is?

is this a bug?

Probably just a simple typo although I was unable to locate where you found the size stated.

Mine is 255x50 pixels and it displays just as it should on the actual search result page. However, on the page where the palette is created it looks microscopic and the properties show it as 50x10 pixels there.

i see it at: [google.com...]

"Logo image URL
optional

JPG, PNG or GIF; max 50x50px"

i now found out i can hack around with the values to make it work.

lol... you always need to modify the as code or else itll mess up.

I found it, thanks. That has to be a typo! If my memory serves me right, it used to say 250x50px.

I think the generated code has simply adjusted mine to fit, although I don't have a major difference in size.

But I found it is really resizing my image to 50x50 in the search result page...

How come!

Not sure if it's a typo, but it is certainly resizing my image down to 50x50px in the SERP's.

Not a typo. They changed the maximum size. If you supply a larger image it is automatically scaled down to have no dimension greater then 50 pixels.

If I remember correctly, they used to allow 50 x 100, but the 50 x 50 has been the standard for a while.

And BTW, if you hack the code in an attempt to insert a larger image, you could get in trouble with AdSense. Not worth it!

What is that logo for anyway?
