MTG Finder 0.2

The first application presented in the blog is about Magic the Gathering (mtg), a famous trading card game.

If you have heard something about mtg, you will know that in there are thousands and thousands of different cards, is practically impossible to know all of them, the pictures, the formats where it's allowed, the artists, the updated text and a lot of another features.

Actually, there are some websites hosting databases with all the cards (such as magiccards.info), but if you are reading an article related you should open a new tab or window and do the query into the website. This is very uncomfortable, at least for me.

MTG Finder is a Chrome Extension done to find magic cards in magiccards.info and show them same window that you are looking without opening new tabs, windows or typing long words, you need only to select the card name and click the extension icon.

Figure that you are viewing a magic website that names a card that you've never seen before, named for exmple, "Ancient Ziggurat". As we can see in the Figure below, we only need to select it and click the button of the extension. A popup with the content of the magiccards.inf query appears and show us the desired card.

This Chrome Extension is available and downloadable for free on the Google Chrome Extensions website: MTG magic single cards finder.

I'm working on the options panel and keyboard shortcuts to do more accessible the query. If you try it and think that you need some feature, all your comments and suggestions for improvements are welcome.
