First: Another single-point-of-trust service. Principally a bad idea,
because *you* know all the sites the users are surfing to! Why should I
(as user) trust you?

Second: You are showing your proxy host name to the target web service.
This...

https://www.tor-proxy.net/cgi-bin/nph-proxy.cgi/000000A/http/torcheck.xenobite.eu/

...leads to following result:

Your HTTP-VIA  	 1.1 v31663.1blu.de:8080 (squid/2.6.STABLE1)

Like this you are uncovering the the first onion hop (yourself).

You should fix that, at least!
