After being sick and tired of the original background shots, I took the matter in my own hands and made some new ones. They sort of go in the same design with the blue overlaycolor, but new pics to spice it up a little.

YOU SHOULD, AND I RECOMMEND, DO A BACKUP OF EXISTING BACKGROUND IMAGES BEFORE INSTALLING THESE.

How to install:
1. Put the data folder in your EHM install folder and overwrite excisting files.
i.e: C:/Program/Sports Interactive/NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007
2. Put the background folder in your skin folder and overwrite excisting files.
i.e: C:/Program/Sports Interactive/NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007/data/skins/ehm_default/

Nice! I'll get these added to our downloads section.
Out of curiosity, how did you get the blue texture? Like you, I got bored with the default images and created my own. However, the hardest bit was trying to recreate the blue texture. I ended up hacking up on the of the default images and recreating the texture from that. Getting the blue opacity just right was another pain.

I just googled some textures and found one who I did think would fit in nicely. The i just put it on some mode (darken I think) then I just fooled around with the blue color layer until I found something nice.
