Add Google Search to 'Search' Drop Down Menu
Unlike other Google Search codes that have been submitted here under 3.5, this one uses the free 'Google on your site' search, so everyone can use it easily. The code has also been modified a bit so it integrates fully with the design your forum, and results will open in a new window so users don't inconvieniently have to leave your site to view results.

Installation
You can download a copy of these instructions. See the attached txt file.
1) Open 'navbar' template.
2) FIND:-
3) UNDERNEATH, ADD:-
4) Enjoy.
-----------------------------------
For the Google Icon (which must be included, Google will be grumpy if it isn't) I have hosted it on Imageshack for this mod. If you wish to host it yourself, just download the attached image, upload it to your server and edit the URL in the code accordingly. I had to change the image because the original is rather too large.
You may also want to change the size of the input box for forum search from '20' to '25' so it is the width of the menu once the Google Search is included.
