TomDixon77 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 So clearly there is news. Good that I asked. Curious to see what the new header design will be....wkdsoul, next time don't try to be clever and answer for others. Like this: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonko Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Oh, yes! That is lovely Tom. Great work as always. I liked the previous one too but this one is much better and I like the logo in the top part of the sidebar and how it connects with the menubar. SI should hire you to design the default FM skins in the future....seriously! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomit Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Always looking forward to Tom Dixon's work, unlike most of the other skinmakers he resists the urge to stuff too much info into the screens. Most other 3rd party skins looks way too "busy" for me, and with too many colours and bling etc. I'm really quite happy with the default FM skin - have been with all the latest editions - but if I want to change, it's always Steklo I look towards. Good work, Tom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonko Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Yes, i'm sure you asking it is out every 5 days is a great help. I wasn't asking you, was I? So mind your own business. Tom's reply showed I was right to ask. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonko Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I agree with thomit. Tom always seems to focus on the graphics of the skin and does an excellent job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomDixon77 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Some small changes (mostly stuff that isn't obvious, like the FM and continue buttons being laid out differently in the xml, so the match header doesn't look weird), and I've switched the pseudo background logo to the other side, so the text is more legible) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBarbaric Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 i always adored steklo for it's simplicity. never liked those skins that are practically a try to put every possible mod and every possible panel in their skin. tom always had a good eye for balance. however, looking the above screenshot, i wonder why is it necessary to have two same logos one below the oteher Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomDixon77 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 That's just the club overview screen, any skin with a logo is going to have it twice there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonko Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Top stuff Tom! The small subtle details often make a big difference as the screenshot shows. Brilliant...can't wait. Playing FM without Steklo skin is not that much fun for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomDixon77 Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Grrrrrr, why can't I recolour some images to match team colours on the match header?

RedBlueEagle Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I struggle to play FM2016 without the Steklo skin. For me I hate the skins that have the club colours with name behind the players face. I really like the club badge behind the players face. Looking at the screenshots that doesn't look like it's in this skin. Would it throw out all of the alignments? I'm loving the rest of the screenshots and will keep checking back for it's release. Thanks for all the previous efforts Tom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
