In FM2007 huge logos were just shown in news articles and in the wizard when starting/adding a new manager.
The logos in the Team Stats page and on the match preview screen use the normal logos.

Have to say this is a little stupid as there are FM players that don't want to fill the my documents folder with game related stuff. In my case it's easy I have a work computer, and have all work related stuff in that folder, and then keeping the spare time stuff on another harddrive.
I think that you should fix this, as I can't see any reasons for making this limitation.

Curses! I've been trying with the shirt backs but still nothing. I notice a few people have mentioned it now, including myself. Has anyone had any joy with this? If so, how? Thanks.

They don't need to go into the My Documents folder, they need to go into the 'User Data Folder' that by default is in the My Documents folder, you can move the location of your User Data Folder to where ever you want, in the game goto the Preferences Menu -> General and at the bottom, click change to pick a new location for your User Data Folder, then transfer your files over and restart the game. (You'll have to select Load Save, rather than load last save due to location changing).
I think what Ter means is don't install the graphics/addons into the same folders that you installed the game into (C  Program Files\Sports Interactive\...) as the game may not pick them up there.

No he says have to go into the my document folder, if not they won't display correctly. I'm pretty sure thats why the default kits shows behind my added kits. Anyway as I can't se any reasons that it has to be this way, I'm quite curuous to know what "good" SI or Ter has made that limitation.

Maybe its because they want to seperate the current content with the stuff that you add? Or perhaps it's if you uninstall the game, and the graphics are inside the c  program files\etc directory, the graphics will disappear as well?
Anyway, thanks for giving the backs of kits a go chaps. Glad to see it's not just me!
Any idea Ter?

| Any custom graphics should go into your User Data Folder, which by default is in your My Documents folder, but you can change this in the game. If you change the User Data Folder setting, then you should put your custom graphics in the user data folder, and not your My Documents folder, as the game won't even look for graphics in My Documents when you have change the User Data Folder.
