I'd like to make a background image, as I'm finding the skin slightly boring at the moment. But I'm not sure what type of file the image should be, the size of the image etc.

Any help?

Thanks
Daniel
 
Go into the skin's graphics folder and there should be a folder called Background.? open that and there should be a background picture.? replace that with the one you want to use and rename it default.jpg and then go reload your skin.
 
I done this one in like 2 minutes as you can tell :S
 
Cheers Danny, do you know if they have to be a specific size?

Click to expand...

The one i am using at the moment is:
Width - 1024
Height - 768

And that seem fine so anything around that size will work for sure :D
 
1600 - 1200 is a better size, as it is the same size as the default
 
JP, following that guide. It didn't work. Any suggestions.

Quite upset about this... it isn't working :(
What am I doing wrong?
 
You renamed it default in the skin you're using background folder?
 
I'm having problems getting my background images to show up FM2010?
I've created the 'graphics/backgrounds folder' and put all the images i had in FM09 into this new folder.

I've ticked and unticked the correct check boxes which are exactly the same as FM09.
I'm not sure whether background images are compatible with the default FM2010 skin?

If this is the case, does anyone know a Skin that will work with background images?

Thanks in advance,
Nathan
