JUST SKIN23
This is my first attempt at creating a custom skin and to say I was not expecting the popularity would be an understatement, thank you everyone!
The skin was designed with 85% zoom in mind (I'm working on trying to optimise it for 100%) so I can't be certain it will work at anything over 85%
PSA!
Just Skin Features
- MODS (limited) like attribute boxes? want to see a secret button that reveals hidden attributes on a player profile(editor required)? check out the MODS folder (more to come at a later date)
- Get the most from your tactics screen! many useful tabs added to the re designed tactics screen.
- A hidden, hidden attributes panel that smiley face you see on the player profile screen is used to reveal hidden attributes in the adjacent cell (don't click if you don't want it spoiled may turn this into a mod)
- Custom views throughout the skin for the views I use, most include player pictures!
- Background selector for those who like a little more colour / backgrounds (recommend full cycling as the transparency is a little buggy)
- Tabs everywhere! for me the game needs more at your finger tips tabs have been put in many places to try and reduce the amount of clicks needed.
- Customisable scouting centre (previously you couldn't alter what you see now you have the option to add things you find important)
- Complete overhaul of most pages presenting you with more information in places lacklust in the base skin.
- Key attributes drop down boxes present in most places to try and help you determine player retrainability!
- Much more in depth scouting cards (will eb re visiting this area again soon) both in the inbox and in the scouting centre.
- Changes to inbox panels (so you don't see the squished up stuff the default has issues with) and also customised / changed news items.
- Colour overhaul including removal of most Transfer deadline day colours
- Subtle Match day changes including the match tablet (more to come here with the line up / primary coloured stuff being pulled)

Thank you for your continued support
LOTS changed in this patch sorry for some of the lack of attention issues I have noticed in alot of the match day panels
If you wanted to experiment with some colours in the mean time in the just settings.xml the colours just1-just4 are what currently control the main purple's, blues and pinks. For now
