FM 2011 Skins - Dark skin for FM2011 Demo
Screenshot:

A note from the author:
This is just a quick fix recommended just for use with the demo - I understand there's a release day patch which will include a dark skin for the full game when that comes out. I've not made any changes here other than adding a number of dark boxes / buttons etc, and changing some of the text colours. Hopefully this is going to be fine for people to be able to enjoy the demo rather than burning their eyes after 5 minutes like I did.

The dark graphics are all just taken from the previous FM dark skins, with the odd exception where I've recoloured an existing FM11 image since it's new. There's no prizes for prettyness, and there's a few bits that I've not seen the point in amending since it's only a quick fix for about 2 weeks.

Released: 23 Oct 2010
