A naive question about subscene.com usage

Hi people,

I'm a long time user of this site, and I enjoy it a lot.
Sadly, sometimes, I don't find what I'm looking for here, and it's often a long search to find the subtitle I'm looking for (especially when they are not in english)

Developer in my heart, I've just coded a small search aggregator for subtitles that can be found at www.subssearch.com (not a link on purpose, I'm not spamming you here).

The idea is that the subtitle site is opened in an iframe, with the user search passed to the site in the iframe.
No scraping, no modification of anything, no tampering with the site layout/template.

I think no one should have problem with it, but I wanted to ask anyway.

Hi Tripy, you are perfectly welcome to index Subscene. However, it would be prefered if you link directly to Subscene instead of iframes - then it would be possible for users to share the link.

Well, maybe it was not obvious enough, but there is one.

Once a search is made, you have an arrow that appears next to the name of the subtitles sites (at least those who don't need an form post to do the search). This is a direct link to the search results.

I will think of a way to make it more visible. It's true that the explaination for this is burried in the text on the center.

There, I have added a pure text link to the current search page above the iframe too.
That way, it should be more visible.
