theirs a static mirror of grease monkey user scripts, and i found my script 
http://www.webextender.net/scripts/show/96470.html

My script works in latest Firefox.
Warning, it's slow!!!! No, it hasn't crashed, just wait
The default uses an image alphabet(a=apple, b=bouncing ball etc...), need to 
download the pictures. It's just a demonstration, i just grabbed some pictures 
from photobucket, i didn't do any attempt to be efficient.
In the scrip, you can define pictures or colours. By default it uses the urls 
of the pictures if given, other wise it just uses the definition of the 
colours.

from the greasemonkey script, you can see what i have in mind.

Any willing guinea pig? :D
Seriously, i'm looking for people to test it on.
