Convert Facebook link to Mafia Wars link
Directions:
From Facebook, right-click on a link to a friend or any person in Facebook.
From the popup menu, click 'Copy Shortcut', 'Copy Link' or whatever your browser calls copying the link.
Paste the shortcut in the textbox below.
Click the link displayed to see that person in Mafia Wars.
Note:
If you get an Invalid Link warning, the shortcut you used does not contain an ID number. This is the case for some users, where their profile URL contains their name, instead of their User ID.
From the user's Facebook page, right-click on 'Send Chris a message' or 'Poke Chris' to find a shortcut that DOES contain an ID number.
Repeat the previous steps.
Convert Mafia Wars link to Facebook link
Note:
Mafia Wars now encrypts their profile ID, so my old method no longer works.
Directions:
From Mafia Wars, right-click on a player's picture.
From the popup menu, click 'Save Image, 'Save Picture' or whatever your browser calls saving a copy of the picture.
From your Save Picture dialog window, the file name should look like 'qXXXXXXXXXX_XXXX.jpg'. Highlight and copy the entire file name.
Paste the shortcut in the textbox below.
Click the link displayed to see that person's Facebook page.
