Released: 12 February 2018
Updated: 24 April 2018
The skin is based on Football Manager Base 2018 Dark Skin (thanks to Michaeltmurrayuk).
I added some panels from other skins, plus my personal customizations (like match title bar and some others).
It works very well at 1280x800 / 1366x768 / 1600x900 - 100% zoom.
I tested it at 1920x1080 as well; it works for me, but you can try it and send me a feedback if something goes wrong.
Feel free to share my skin (first please send me a message) and report bugs.

You can edit cfm player profile cutout signature.xml in tiki-taka_18/panels/player/cfm
I don't have enough space to move this panel. I don't know where putting it
This problem happens when you change the skin for the first time.
The solution is simple: click on a tab (Attributes or other) and the problem is solved!
But is it possible to make a player picture bigger? I do not need a kit and emblem of the club. I need a photo size like in, for example, GZ Skin.
Is it possible? If yes, which file/code I have to change?
Thank you very much!
I'm enjoying this skin, i hope you continued next years!
You must have the In-game Editor to see CA and PA
Go to skin folder/panels/player.
Open player attributes panel.xml
Replace the code:
<!-- Attribute value -->
<record index="2" id="val" sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre" right="8">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="centre, can scale" style="semi_bold" colour="white" use_attribute_colour_as_bg="false" appearance="boxes/custom/attributes/paper"/>
</record>
With this:
<!-- Attribute value -->
<record index="2" id="val" sort_disabled="true" column_alignment="centre" right="8">
<record id="widget_info" class="attribute_label" alignment="right, centre_y" style="semi_bold" multiline="false"/>
</record>
Save and reload the skin
