It couldn't help out my Wings. Not even at home... :mad:

I'm working on a white one and it should be out shortly.

I just uploaded a white version that I call "Away". I'm not totally happy with it but I wasn't sure what else to do with it. Anyway, give it a try and let me know what you guys think.

I would also be very happy if it would be close to the ehm 05 pen skin, which I liked very much! :thup:

I'm afraid you have the wrong skins. Chromeleon and Etched Steel were both EHM 2005 skins.

I remember somebody (I believe it was Minty) doing one a while back and he said it was an insane amount of work and it was very tricky to get it right. I wouldn't hold my breath for somebody to pick that back up.

Yeah, I think you're referring to Minty's "Whiteout" update.

And I too remember him mentioning how crazy it was to do(that's saying a lot coming from Minty). And after trying a full skin of my own... I'm terrified to even think of touching EHM's skinning anymore. :-o

Hi guys,

i have created a new Skin. It based of my Blue Romantic Bordeaux Skin with new three Backgrounds and sidebar. Unfortunately, would I make it not to publish here, because I am missing 2 permits of 4.

I have written to both owners several times, unfortunately I got no answer. Perhaps the e-mails landing in spam folder?

It is managed really well.

Sorry, but I've tried everything!

Is there any easy and fast way to re-link everything in the SKN-file or do I have to copy/paste?

How do you edit the grey field behind the player stats and info? I want to make it darker to make it easier to see the text. I'm trying to make my first skin and will have lots of questions.

I'm not sure exactly what part of the skin you're referring to, so I'm guessing this is what you want:

C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Hockey Manager 2007\data\skins\ehm_default\boxes\default\

- paper_top_left.png
- paper_top_middle.png
- paper_top_right.png
- paper_middle_left.png
- paper_middle_middle.png
- paper_middle_right.png
- paper_bottom_left.png
- paper_bottom_middle.png
- paper_bottom_right.png


I believe these are the elements that create the transparent black boxes that serve as backgrounds for just about any text in the game's main "window" (by "main window", I mean the main area to the right of the sidebar, and below the titlebar)
