Welcome to my Football Manager Blog, the main purpose of this blog is to provide updates on the status of my Football Manager Skins & Guides Website

If you have any questions or queries then I can generally be found in the Skinning Forum at the Official Sports Interactive Forums, though I'd ask you to open a new thread rather than sending me a message.

To help with navigation I have included indexes of my content for the last few versions of Football Manager in the tabs below.

Football Manager 2013 Base Skins Released



As with recent Football Managers to make certain changes in Football Manager 2013 you are required to add files to the skin folders, whilst this isn't a problem for fan-made skins it is a slight problem if you are using the Default Skins included with the game. So to help people out I have again made some Base Skins for FM2013 that allow you to add and modify the default skins without breaking your game.

Full instructions on when and how to use the Base Skins can be found on the download page, please ensure you read the page in detail before downloading the Base Skins as it will save you problems in the future. 

The main change this year is the introduction of the Football Manager Classic Mode (FMC), the main difference skinning wise is it has it's own skin but other than that it seems to be edited in the same way as the normal skins.


Currently there are two versions of the Base Skin - one for normal FM2013 and the other for the Classic Mode (FMC)

If you have any further questions on the Base Skins please ask any questions in the Skinning Hideout on the Official SIGames Forums.

Netbook 2012 Skin


The latest version of my Netbook Skins are now finished, again the skins are designed to work better on Netbooks and other computers who's screens are limited to a 1024x600 resolution. Skin is based on the default FM2011 skin, with the most changes being the maximising of the screen content area.
As an added bonus this year the Tactics and Set-Piece Creators are usable, they still cannot be resized to fit into the screen but if you click on them they will shift focus to the bottom and clicking again will shift the focus to the top.
