Minty, nice skin =D> ...but is it possible to edit the colour of the date when there is a white background (see Screenshot-click a couple of times to zoom in on the date), as it is currently hard to see...

PS-did you notice the official SM-Liiga badge? Edited it myself and I am pretty chuffed with it ;). Only about another hundred leagues to do now...

Sleek is one of an uncompleted duo planned by Rubbinio; thus the "light blue" name as he had a test version of a "dark blue" skin he never published... that and another skin he said he had mostly finished but I never even saw a screenshot of :dunno: So, if anyone did want to work on a skin I'd gladly test it for them and give them ideas/notes like the five or six pages I gave Rubbinio for Light Blue that helped him give it the detail and polish it has. :-)

As for your question though the only way to change that text coloring is to change the color of all the default white text in the game; so that would mean the letters of the menus, sidebar, team names and scores on the schedule page etc. A lot of the .col options make changes in multiple locations... That's why my design considerations/testing have always taken that into account...

Really the only thing you could do in this case would be to alter the titlepanels adding a darkening overlay "shade" that would overlay the area with a darker color resulting in more contrast... I'm not sure how it would carry over on non-white titlepanel sections though. The problem comes from that text is usually on top of the side solid portion of the titlepanel. As it's a "design decision" it could only be changed by redesign or a swapping out to a different titlebar...
