right ive been having a look at the .png files and they look pretty straight forward and shouldnt be to hard to recolour, so fingers crossed they should be done asap

An ESPN-style skin would be cool - with all of the reds, whites and blacks.
It would go well with the ESPN font that Rabi's doing 8)

i was doing an ESPN font?
well ok i'll do that now. i'm doing my msc (finishing up thank god!) so i'll "fix" the ESPN font so that it doesnt give out that stupid square box instead of TM. Also i remember making a request to GK to get him to split the font file for the titlebar and the rest of the game i don't know if he's done that yet. Again i'll look into this in october 1st or as soon as i have freedom again
if you can't wait until then i suggest you do the following:
d/l one of these files:
http://www.dafont.com/en/search.php?nq=1&q=espn
secondly unzip them and then rename the font file you want to:
humanist.tff
go to the directory:
%game dir%\data\fonts
backup the old copy of humanist.tff to maybe humanistold.tff
copy the ESPN font file into the directory.
now with patch 1.03 or 1.02 came the change to split the titlebar and ingame fonts seperately. in whatever case i'm going to optimise the font pack so that it fits in with Minstrel's Brushed Steel skin and Jim Harnock's NHL Titlebar set. When I release these on my site i'll post in here that they're available
