I'm looking for a cool Barcelona picture to add to my save game.

Ive downloaded Spanish League Backgrounds from sortitoutsi,but the Barca pic makes it hard to see news items and also ruins the squad screen.

If anyone can post some pics here so i can download,i'll be very thankfull!

Don't know if this is the kind of thing you're after but I've been using these in my Barca game

Save the picture here on your computer
Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\data\graphics\pictures

best to make a folder for backgrounds if you haven't already got one in your 'pictures' folder.

then you need a config.xml file for the picture to put it in the game, that is easily done, just open up 'Notepad' and copy and paste this into it:

<record>

<!-- resource manager options -->

<!-- dont preload or cache anything in this folder -->
<boolean id="preload" value="false"/>
<boolean id="cache" value="false"/>

<!-- turn on auto mapping -->
<boolean id="amap" value="true"/>


<list id="maps">



<!-- clubs -->


<record from="barca" to="graphics/pictures/team/1708/background"/>

Then save the Notepad as config.xml, keep that and the barca picture in the same folder and it should show in your game.
You should also make sure that in 'preferences' on the game you have unticked 'use skin cache' and ticked 'show background pictures'.
