hey guys. i've been on sortitoutsi.net to find this very wicked sick skin called the Fifa Manager Skin. However, my skin seems to be a bit different from the rest. Firstly, my continue button is sort of screwed. The red continue button is on my bottom right but the word 'Continue' is not aligned to the button. Also, when i view a player's profile, all the screenshots i see of people have the profile colors with excellent attributes(>16) as green in color, but mine is of a default color. how do i change this? can someone give me a link or something? any help would be appreciated. thank you

The misaligned continue will be a mistake by the skinner. You could probably edit it to put it right. But i don't know how you would go about it.

As for Player attribute colours.
These colours are in an xml file called fm colours. The file is normally found by this path.

CSports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\settings

but you will probably need to look in your new skins "settings" folder

It can be edited and opened with notepad.
The part to edit for player attributes looks like this.

<!-- profile attribute colours -->
<colour name="low attribute" red="180" green="180" blue="180"/>
<colour name="normal attribute" red="220" green="220" blue="0" />
<colour name="good attribute" red="255" green="160" blue="0" />
<colour name="excellent attribute" red="0" green="255" blue="0" />

You change the numbers to get different colours. Have a play around and see what colours you come up with. I don't know the specific numbers for each colour.

Always make a back up copy of the origional fm colours xml and keep it somewhere like my documents.
Then If you make a mistake you can easily restore the origionals and start again.
Hope this helps.

The continue might end up aligned properly if you resize the window or play in full-screen. Not the best solution, but that's probably the reason why it doesn't show up properly.
