These backgrounds are a bit different to your usual crop and save packs, I've tried to inject more colour into the pics to give them a bit more vibrancy than your standard background which really shows through.

You get a choice of downloads depending on whether you prefer them to show only on matchdays or on the team screen as well, I will also be releasing team screen specific backgrounds at some point but you might have to be a bit more patient for them.

These look beautiful

Can't wait for them

[kerlonmoura]

Amazing work mate!

[CFCJames]

Could you post a SS of the homepage during the game? it will make or break my decision on weither to dl these, sorry if i am a nucence(sp)

[geordie1981]

Cheers all, here you go hope this is the right screen. This is the retro skin so theres no overlay on it to protect the text, my last skin was taking a century to load the game so it got binned. I'll take a proper screenshot when I find a new skin or the skin you're using if you prefer;

I'm almost caught up with the (optional) team screen bg's yhey're looking a bit similar to my old gradient ones for FM09, here's a couple of screenies.

boo hissss;


and one from down my brother's way;


Before I forget, if anyone has any particular league they'd like in the pack I'll see what I can do.

[geordie1981]

I promised screenshots so here goes;

[Carroll]

They look absolutely beautiful mate

[geordie1981]

Cheers mate.

Change of plan, basically I've been added to the naughty list for downloading/uploading too much during the day (there's five of us in the house, so not all down to me) and our upload limit has been restricted to 5kb/s for 6 months, so no torrent unfortunately and considering the hassle with the cut-out megapack I'm wary about splitting into parts and putting it on filefront. On the plus side once the restrictions are lifted I'll have one hell of a megapack ready to torrent.

What this means is that I'll be releasing each Nation as I finish them which'll make it easier for you to download anyway, I'll be releasing at least one pack every day starting with Scotland right now. Same deal as before the stadiums are a priority with the team screens at a later date because they take that much longer and slow my computer down to a snails pace and I was never the most patient of people.

Here's the first pack which contains the four playable leagues of Scotland and because I haven't got anything for the team screen available just yet you get a choice of downloads.

If you only want them to show on matchdays only download this: DOWNLOAD

If you want them to show on both match and team screens download this: DOWNLOAD

[Carroll]

Cheers for the Scotland ones mate

England ones tomorrow hopefully

[geordie1981]

Aye, just a few teams left to find decent pics for and it'll be ready.

[Callaway]

Great work with these mate.

Does anybody know how to put filters into skins so that you can actually see the text on matchday?? I'm using the base skin 2011 by michaelmurrayuk.

[geordie1981]

Cheers Callaway,

Download the base 2011 bg skin from here http://sites.google....baseskinsfm2011, the only problem with it is that it squashes the backgrounds to fit under the header.

[geordie1981]

Later than billed because I uploaded without testing the pack properly ingame so had to re-upload them.

English stadium backgrounds for all 159 playable clubs (Ilkeston have gone bust).

For match and team screens use this file: DOWNLOAD

[geordie1981]

Cheers.

I'm guessing you haven't loaded the game yet, I've saved the pics as stadium id so in the pack it'll be down as 5114325. Heres a screenie for it.

It appears the Man Utd pic I've used is out of date so download this remove the "c" from the filename and drop it into the England pack pressing yes to overwrite.
