This has been working for a few years now (I have most of the photos for 2003 on...), but the quality is getting worse every year... All the pics used to work a few years back, last season there was alot of corrupted files (photos had weird coloures lines, some had half of the pic shifted...). But the up side was more photos than previous years.

Works on all sports galleries at cbs.sportsline,

BUT the thumbs in the gallery which have a small black frame around them DO NOT WORK! (Can not be seen at higher size)

See example:

images.sportsline.com/b/ap/photos/DUCKS_KINGS_HOCKEY2624660_lower.jpg

(Can't post images so just c/p this into your URL bar...)

thanks it works now, that must have been why. The ones I saw with the black frame around it were not working. Good wallpaper material for sure...

This trick has been going on for a while now. I googled it a while ago and found out how to do it on several message boards. If they don't know by now they never will (most likely they probably just don't care).

Alright, I have a question.

Is there a way to access photos from previous games? If you go to the Kings photo page now, all it has are photos from this last game. Are we all going to have to remember to go their and snag the pics after every game, or can we access the older ones somehow?

The only pictures you can access are the ones you see in the gallery. So this means you have to get them after every game, yes (the gallery is updated with new pictures after every game, so the old ones are replaced after a day or two, depends how many games and new photos there are on a given day). I assume the photos are still on a srever, but if you don't know the path to the file, you can't get to it.

Right right. Figured as much. Thanks.
