About DoodleForge for Google
Make Google yours. DoodleForge replaces the Google logo on the search homepage, results pages, and AI mode with whatever you want — your name, a favorite quote, an uploaded image, or a live ticking clock.
★ THREE DOODLE MODES
- Text — type anything up to 40 characters, rendered in your chosen colors
- Image — upload a PNG, JPG, WEBP, or GIF (auto-resized), or paste an image URL
- Clock — live time display, 12h or 24h, with optional seconds
★ EIGHT BUILT-IN COLOR PALETTES
Google, Sunset, Ocean, Neon, Mono, Pastel, Forest, and Candy. Or pick your own — DoodleForge supports up to 12 fully custom hex colors.
★ FOUR ANIMATION EFFECTS
- Rainbow shift — colors cycle through the spectrum
- Glow pulse — soft halo expands and contracts
- Bounce — letters bob up and down with phase offset
- Typing reveal — characters appear one by one
Animation speed is fully adjustable. Respects prefers-reduced-motion for accessibility.
★ OPTIONAL NEW TAB PAGE
Turn on the new tab override to see your custom doodle every time you open a tab, in a Google-style homepage with a working search box, Gmail and Images links, and an "I'm Feeling Lucky" button. Off by default — enable it from the options page when you want it.
★ FINE-GRAINED CONTROL
- Master on/off switch
- Adjustable scale (20%–300%)
- Vertical position offset
- Live preview as you edit
- Export and import settings as JSON for backup or sharing
★ FAST AND PRIVATE
- Vanilla JavaScript, no frameworks, no telemetry
- All settings stored locally on your device
- No data ever sent anywhere
- No analytics, no tracking, no account required
- Works on all Google country domains (35+ ccTLDs supported)
★ HOW TO USE
1. Click the DoodleForge icon in your toolbar
2. Pick Text, Image, or Clock mode
