How do you add new websites to Chrome's "New tabs page."?

Asked by forki (55points) May 31st, 2010

When you start up Chrome it comes up with this page showing websites you visit a lot, is there a way to set websites there?

I don’t know about adding a website. My best guess would be open it a bunch of times until it appears. Maybe make it your home page a while.

But once it appears, there is this:

Make thumbnails sticky
Thumbnails can appear and disappear over time, as your browsing habits change. To prevent a thumbnail from moving around, pin it to the page: Hover over the thumbnail with your mouse and click the button in the top left corner of the frame. To unpin the site, simply click the button again.

I found that here, click “Customize the page” to see the topic:

I ran into this problem earlier. They haven’t added a feature to allow you to simply change them yet.. sort of annoying. But what I do is open the page and hold F5 for a minute or two.
Then I keep clicking on the x on the thumbnail until it pops up. Then, like @jaytkay said with the sticky thumbnail, just click the pin to keep it there.
