This is a list of external modding related sites that do not quite fit into any specific category.

Todo: Author's note: It's my intention that over time the sites on this page should be dispersed to the more specific categories at the bottom (with the same site duplicated on multiple lists where appropriate. Then once this page is empty, it can be deleted. --Giles 09:22, 29 Aug 2006 (PDT)
