dev.opera.com shows you how to Make your site shine in Speed Dial.
I will show you how to make other sites shine in Speed Dial.

It's all about adding custom CSS to a site. Normally no problem. You can add custom style sheets with opera easily. Sadly it doesn't work for speed dials.

But there is a simple workaround: Download the Easy User CSS extension.

Now you can add custom CSS to the site you want to feature for speed dial.

Let's try this for Wunderlist. Normally it looks like the picture on the left.
But let's add a bit CSS magic now

Access the site and click on the Easy User CSS button.
I added the following stylesheet for Wunderlist:
In plain text:

@media screen and (view-mode: minimized) {
#content, #bottombar, .searchside {
display: none;
}
#lists {
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
}

The magic is @media screen and (view-mode: minimized) {...}. It will change the appearance in speed dial but not on the real site.
So you can play with the different elements on your speed dial sites and make them more useful in preview mode.
It also works with the "reload every" setting.

I'm looking forward to see your enhanced speed dial sites in the comments

IMAP is great. It allows you to stay up to date with your e-mails everywhere you are.
And together with Opera and some tricks it can help you to keep your mails organized.

With 11.0 Opera labels are very powerful.
One problem so far: Custom labels don't synchronize.

Let me show you the way to do that
