Here are some screenshots:

You can download it from here. (Make sure you read the included ReadMe file for installation instructions.)

Please post any feedback, ideas and bug reports you have for the skin to help me make it better.

Cheers,

What background pack are you using?

Share SamJ :p

Awesome, with the new game it really feels like a new title.

I'm not using a background pack. I just have a collection of background pictures that I have downloaded from various places and some backgrounds from previous CM games. They are mostly outdated with a lot of shots of clubs old kits and with players who don't play for them anymore. For this reason I haven't actually bothered configuring them all to link up to their appropiate clubs/players.

All I do when I'm playing FM is to get a few backgrounds for the club I'm playing as and configure those shots. The backgrounds you see in the screenshots of the skin were handpicked by me for those screens.

grr you should. Awesome.

I'm looking for my old cm copies right now.. But I think they have different sizes.

SamJ

I think from CM3 onwards the background pics were 1024x768 so you should be right, except that they are now outdated.

I would consider uploading a background pics pack except for the fact that they are outdated, I don't have credits of all the places I got my pictures from and it would be a massive file and I have a slow Internet connection, so it would take ages to upload.

Though it would be great if there were somewhere on the net where you could get quality soccer backgrounds from...
