July 22, 200619 yr For those that use Firefox, I have made an extension for White Sox links. It is nothing spectacular, but it makes browsing White Sox links much easier. All the links go directly to the White Sox section or team page on that site. If you want to check it out, you can download it here: http://www.pcgamingtech.net/downloads/whitesox.xpi Just use File > Open File from Firefox to install it after you download it. It will install on the top File bar next to the Help. Here is what it contains: * Direct links to major sports sites (8 sites) * Direct links to reference sites (13 sites) * Direct links to major news sites (9 sites) * Direct links to fan sites (4 sites) * Direct links to blogs (9 sites) * Direct links to player pages (normally 7-9 per player) Screenshots: For those that do try it, any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. EDIT (31 MAY 2009): Updated with current roster, added new links, removed dead links. Edited May 31, 200916 yr by RME JICO
July 22, 200619 yr Minor suggestion: How about a link to each players mlb4u.com page that shows their contract info. That would come in real handy. Thanks for your work on this BTW EDIT - NVM didn't see you had MLB4U on there under references. Edited July 22, 200619 yr by WHarris1

July 24, 200619 yr Is it just me, or do the links for 'schedule', 'statistics' and 'roster' not work? They just take me to the White Sox homepage instead.

Let me check what build is on the ftp, it might not have overwritten properly. * Update - Fixed links, added MacDougal, dropped Tracey http://www.pcgamingtech.net/downloads/whitesox.xpi Also, FYI, right-clicking a link will open it in a new tab.

July 30, 200619 yr Hey RME- Your baseball musings links for the hitters are off. You have them linked to the pitching section of baseball musings instead of hitting. Here is the hitting database: http://www.baseballmusings.com/cgi-bin/ChoosePlayer.py Edited July 30, 200619 yr by WHarris1
July 30, 200619 yr Yo, after I unzipped the folder, I tried opening the install file but it won't let me open it because it doesn't recognize it

Fixed now, also added Google News player searches for all players and HR Trackers for Thome, Konerko, Dye, and Crede. http://www.pcgamingtech.net/downloads/whitesox.xpi QUOTE(shoelessjoe90 @ Jul 30, 2006 -> 12:44 AM) Yo, after I unzipped the folder, I tried opening the install file but it won't let me open it because it doesn't recognize it If you go to the URL in Firefox, once you download it, you should be able to open the file in Firefox (File > Open) and it should recognize it as an xpi file and automatically prompt you to install it. You shouldn't have to unzip anything. If you try to download it with IE, it will convert the xpi to a zip file. Edited July 30, 200619 yr by RME JICO
