murray Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 This is the updated version of the skin I made in the FMGLive thread "A Journey in Skinning". Some changes have been implemented since the beta version went out to FMG VIP members, including: Background selector (accessible via quicklinks) Increased logo size on main match overview screen Modified some of the existing V1 graphics Added "set pieces" view to match tactics screen Tweaked some function placement between main and match screens I'd like to thank radestock for the original background selector coding which I have modified for this skin, the VIP members who have already given V1 a test run, and those who provided input and encouragement while the skin was being made. Screens: Download: Left and right version supplied here. Cheers, M Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo22 Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Just have to say, i'm usually never impressed with custom made skins at they seem to always have too much going on and the contrasts of things are wrong. This on the other hand looks superb. As Andy Gray would say... Take a Bow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
radestock Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Like it. Shame there are a few bits here and there that haven't changed much form the default skin (quickflicks, menubar, continue button for example). Would have been nice to see them change to fit your skin's style. Not sure the royal blue position indicators work either. They're a little too brash and obvious (same with the morale icons actually. Other than that though it's a very nice skin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo22 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Having played with this for a good few hours i'd say the only complaints I would have with it are the colour of the player position icons (they'd look better if they were Grey, similar to the sidebar) and the position of the Manager, World, Shortlist?? and Options icons, they would look better on the same row as the rest of the icons (if they can be placed there) they just seems out of place where they are.

Tonytorres123 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 hey, great skin, was just wondering, how do i make the logo's bigger like on the matchday screen on other skins too?

iolodavanki Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Cheers - very nice skin! I know how to open up the "fm colours" and change some of the colouring to suit my own taste (like player attributes). Is it possible to change the folowing colours in the skin?: 1) Player positions (now bright blue, would prefer more subtle colour) 2) On player screen/Other (now faint purple, would prefer yellow/orange) (I changed the av-rating colour through note pad which originally also was purple, for example) Keep up the good work!

Jinner Jamie Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 How did you remove the background logos?Thanks. Go into the Skymning skin right or left folder then: Open up titlebar.xml in the panels folder and delete <!-- set main 'background' logo --> <attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="sbpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/> Then a few lines underneath it delete <!-- set main 'background' logo --> <attachment class="get_global_attachment" get_property="mbpc" set_property="file" skip_if_null="false"/> And the background logos will be gone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tpbanana Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Love the skin but could ask a question. Does anybody know who to tweak it so that there is a fixtures button instead of calendar as I never use the calendar? I know you have to alter the 'footer quicklinks.xml' but not sure how.

equilibrium9 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Very nice skin, but i do have to agree with people that the menu bar icons at the side makes it awkward to use at the start but once you get used to it, it is still very easy to use which makes it probably the best skin i've ever seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
