Hi guys - am playing the game in OS X, any ideas as to where the appropriate folders are to dump all the image packs I have in?

Anyone whoi cant get logos to work, Makes sure they are in My Documents folder and NOT Program files. Once you have installed your graphics, Go into your game preferences, Untick Skin Cache in Display and Sound, Then click reload skin, then confirm.

I'll try again: How can I resize png files from fm07 so they won't become blurry and fuzzy?

Kinda S*ucks, but you can't. Might try to Sharpen a bit, but it's still not gonna be too great.

One of the first lessons in graphic editing I learned (from the FPS:FBPro99 tutorial (yeah, that game was really bad, but it was the first I know of to offer the user custom graphics in a 3D sports engine, and the tutorial for creating those graphics was fantastic)) was to Sharpen after each resize.

Im having so many issues get the a new skin to work. I have downloaded one but can't seem to select it. I have done all the Skin cache part. It must be where I am extracting it to.

I don't have a graphics or skins folder so I created 1 and still dd not work so I removed them. I have got all the player pictures, logos and kits to work just not the skin. Its HURTING my eyes

I'll be updating these 'quick' guides in the next few days (hopefully) to be a bit more detailed and user friendly.

Sorry bit clueless here.
I have facepacks I want to install.
Am I right is saying it should be CDocuments and Settings\Username\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\graphics\pictures\ then seperate directories for Facepacks - Logos - Kits etc

Any help would be much appreciated.

Yes extract the files into there (the subfolders aren't important as long as they are in the graphics folder above), and where Username is the name of your Windows Profile (Or just select the My Documents shortcut on your desktop).

Then when you load up the game you'll need to go into the Preferences menu, then Display & Sound and Untick 'Use Skin Cache' and tick 'Always reload skin on confirm' then click confirm.

Your facepacks should now display in game (Provided you have turned Real Faces on from the above menu).

My Quest is how do you do so in a team you add a logo you get the big one in the name background after the medium logo and the little logo that appears near team name in league tables and day matchs info or playoff info, actually only getting the medium logo in name screen or when you get info from a team
