any help at all?:(
 
emmmm nothing should show in prefernces
 
I'm guessing you've not followed the guide correctly. Have a read over it again, Steam doesn't affect graphics etc.
 
okay, ill have a read through the guide again, ill post back soon.

For this example we will use the Flex09 skin which can be downloaded
here. -- Did that

1) Save the flex09.rar skin file to a temporary folder. Eg: Desktop or My Documents -- Did that

2) You will need to download WinRAR to install this file. You can download it here. -- Installed this

2) Once downloaded right click on the flex09.rar file and choose WinRAR > Extract Files. -- Done.

3) Change the destination path to
Vista -> C:\Users\Your Account Name\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2009\skins
-- im vista, i put the destination in the right place.

4) Run Football Manager 2009.

5) Go onto Preferences.

6) On the Display & Sound section select the skin you want, in this case Flex09 and then make sure Skin Cache is unticked.

there was no Flex09, just football manager2008,2009 and 2009 Right.
i clicked off skin cache, and put on reload when confirm, started a new game, but nothing.

7) Click Confirm and your new skin should load up.
