Here are the first screenies of my latest (and most ambitious!) skin.
Hope you like what you see:

West Ham

Ipswich

Newcastle

Norwich

Please let me know what you think. Obviously it is far from finished so I don't really want to set a completion date because I want it to be as good as I can get it!!

Not as refined as Chameleon but looking good nevertheless.

Am interested as to how you got the 'Continue' to be black outlined. Did you use style="outlined" as i can't seem to get that to work.

Looks promising. I have to confess im not a big fan of that font, but I have tweaked that when ive used your skins before so thats not too bad.

One comment I would make is to maybe try and get a smooth curve going between the team coloured section at the top with the team name in, and the bar containing the menus just underneath it. At the moment you have one radius for the menubar, and one for the team name bar, which meet at a point. Get rid of the point and make it one long curve. Hope that makes sense.

Another comment would be (I know its a WIP, so probably not got round to yet, but the red colour of the main window containing the squad doesnt seem to go with any of the team colours. A more neutral colour would be advisable.

one final question, drifting slightly off topic, but who is Lewis Price? He is playing a blinder at the moment!! I hope he isnt made up! Where is he from?

Regards the titlebar point thing, I didn't realise that until you mentioned it but now its getting on my nerves!! So yes that will have gone by tonight

The red parts are actually from my Match Of The Day skin so those will definately be gone.

Lewis Price is one of those rare guys you get in the U18's sometimes, stats aren't too great but for an 18 yr old... WOW

I cant play FM now thanks to James!!
I just cant get over that straight edge!

retired_healthy1

I think this titlebar looks better! Thanks for pointing it out James!!

New titlebar

Also on the subject of fonts I seem to get a lot of complaints about the font I use (Hammerfat) The only reason I use it is because I forget to change it.
But I will be using a different font for this one... soooo... if you can give me a couple of ideas for which one I could use it would be greatly appreciated

Decent skin... not a fan of the font mind.

retired_caitlynmatte

Font and morale indicators are awful

otherwise looks like a v good skin

Hope I didnt cause you too many sleepless nights! My favourite font is still 'Denmark', which was used on an older version of CM (I forget which one). I know it is the font used on the 'Harrist' skin.
