Does anyone have an updated guide on how to create backgrounds from scratch? The link to the template in the older version is dead.

This is the way I do it:
1) Find or create an image with at least 1024 pixels in width and 640 pixels in height.
2) Crop and/or resize the image to 1024 pixels in width and 640 pixels in height.
3) Add a bar to the top of the image, so that the height of the image gets to 768 pixels. This bar will be just a filler underneath the club or player name and all that information. I use black, but any colour will do.
4) Save as either PNEG or JPEG. PNEG images have more quality but the files are also larger.

Awesome, thanks a bunch.

As far as where to put the background once I've completed it? I noticed the mug shots for players are the player name and birthday, is it the same for the backgrounds?
