Netbook2010 Skin

My First Skin for FM2010 is an update of my Netbook skin. The FM2010 version is completely remade and based upon the new layout and scheme introduced in Football Manager 2010.

The skin is designed to work better on Netbooks and other computers who's screens are limited to a 1024x600 resolution. Skin is based on the default FM2010 skin, with the most changes being the maximising of the screen content area.

FM09 Larger Match Screen Skin

My second skin for Football Manager 2009 is more of a mod - it is designed to maximise the amount of screen space given to the match pitch and is based upon my match screen modifications from my Netbook09 skin.

The match screen skin can also be easily edited so it will work with various other skins released by the community.

Screenshots:
