Service cards now use their images as full-cover backgrounds instead of small centered icons with solid color fills.

Changes

CSS (styles.css)

Service cards: background-size: cover with center positioning
Overlay: Dark-to-light gradient (bottom-to-top) for text legibility
Service names: Repositioned to bottom (flex-end), increased to 32px with enhanced shadows
Icon element: Hidden via display: none

JavaScript (renderer.js)

Card creation now sets backgroundImage style directly instead of creating <img> elements
Fallback to backgroundColor when images unavailable

Before:

const icon = document.createElement('img');
icon.className = 'service-icon';
icon.src = iconPath;
content.appendChild(icon);

After:

card.style.backgroundImage = `url('${iconPath}')`;
card.style.backgroundColor = service.icon_color || '#4a90e2';

Result

Service names display at the bottom with gradient overlay ensuring readability across all image types. Focus/hover states preserved.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

redirector.gvt1.com

Triggering command: /proc/self/exe --type=utility --utility-sub-type=network.mojom.NetworkService --lang=en-US --service-sandbox-type=none --no-sandbox --enable-crash-reporter=abb57c3b-6365-4891-95e2-74d278da232c,no_channel --user-data-dir=/home/REDACTED/.config/castroix --shared-files=v8_context_snapshot_data:100 --field-trial-handle=3,i,8021557360575821242,11885160536689299792,262144 --enable-features=PdfUseShowSaveFilePicker --disable-features=LocalNetworkAccessChecks,ScreenAIOCREnabled,SpareRendererForSitePerProcess,TraceSiteInstanceGetProcessCreation --variations-seed-version --trace-process-track-uuid=3190708989122997041 (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled

Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
