@Sandro It's possible, but it's not just matter of changing one font colour, but several font&icon values across skin files. I don't consider doing it, since half of text would be often unreadable with dark secondary colors. Also some teams have terrible color combinations by default. Titlebar would look terrible when managing them.
For manager picture I included mod in the MODS folder.
It is possible to change font coulor in the tittle bar (competition and club screens). Its always white, i dont see any panel to do that in MODS! folder.
And one more question. Manager picuture is bigger in the club profile page, can I bring back its size to player pictures?
Great work
The only issue I have is that when I select to view a result from the Scheudle Tab, the background is the main screen (the manager stood in the dressing room). How do I fix that?
@Giannis_Sta Sorry, I'm not able to give you instructions for something not already added. My skinmaking is one big trial&error improvisation.
@Sandro Mod for that is included in the "! MODS !" folder.
