Nice!! I could really use this, however I am doing a PS3 site. Any way to work that in?

doesnt let me save the profile field i need to put something in the options

I was planning on making a separate modification for this. No ETA though.

You set the profile field up incorrectly then.

No you gave incomplete/incorrect directions. With Single-Selection Menu you HAVE to put something in the options field in order to save it. I think you meant to put Single-Line Text Box. Please complete/fix your directions. Thanks.

Ahh my mistake. I copied directions from a previous modification, as I was about to go to work and was in a hurry, so I must have forgotten to change them.

Mistakes happen :). Also on line 60 of product-gamercardprofile.xml you have an error. You are pointing to
and it should be:
http://gamercardprofile.xbox.com isn't an active URL. Other then that, great mod. :) I haven't been able to get the hover mod to work just yet but I have a custom theme, so that is most likely my issue. Once I figure it out I will post a solution so everyone will know what to do. Thank you for this mod, it really is nice!

Hmm that's strange. Both of those URLs work for me lol. Anyway since it isn't working for you I will fix that in my upcoming update.

In the upcoming update it will fix the issue with the hover not working for people who have spaces in their gamertags. MyGamerCard.net seems to have issues with spaces so they use +... I believe a simple fix in the profile field itself should make things proper.

No ETA at the moment.

Hmm, it wont appear in the postbit even after I added the hover edit.

Any idea why? The gamercard is perfect in the profile however.
