    Hey, I've been trying to install skins for the last 2 days. I downloaded Steklo x1 v1.1 from sortitoutsi.net. I have extracted the file using WinZip and placed all 4 contained folders ( in C:\Users\Jack\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 11\skins


    In the game, under preferences, I have deselected "Use Skin Cache" and I have selected "Always reload on Confirm". When I click confirm, I am not given any more options under Skins drop-down menu. I have also tried RD5 to no luck either. Can anyone help?

    I am on Windows 7 and haven't partitioned the drive into OS and DATA so My Documents location is C:\Users\Jack

    After that, we both have the same location. I have checked the programs default data location and it corresponds with where I have it. I haven't had any problem adding logos or kits. Both of those are under C:\Users\Jack\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 11\graphics\kits and C:\Users\Jack\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 11\graphics\logos respectively.


    EDIT: Got it working. I had made Skins a subfolder in the graphics folder rather than an entire folder of its own. Moved it to a full folder at an equal level to graphics and it worked. Thanks.
