Dear all
This is FLUTSKIN Version 8.0 for FM23!!
First of all I would like to give a great thank you to all FM fans who choose to play with FLUTSKIN and always keep me motivated to still editing the skin and gave me new ideas!!!
A special thank you to all of players who decided to distinguish my work with a donation!! Although just a small part of FM Players who use the skin made a donation (I edited the skin as a hobby and, as you know, completely free), I always feel honoured and happy when people recognize the work done and decide to contribute. So, I reinforce, I have to give a special thank you to that friends of FlutsKin!!!!!!
Also a thank you to all the skin makers who indirectly contribute to my work, and a special thank you to PATRES10, from fmslovakia for the 2D default kits (especially tailor-made for FlutSkin), to MICHAEL MURRAY since I started editing the match inbetween highlights panel based on his amazing work, to QVORDRUP, for the metallic “Round country flags” and his great collaboration in the “country locator maps”, to NUNO KOPIO for the “Square shiny flags” I included as alt files (for using as an alternative to the “Round country flags”) to PMPOU for his great contribution with many tickets to customize the skin, to DAZS8 for his great work in the addons for Flutskin. I also thank you for the contributes made by NOLEAFWILEN and RICHBELL.
In FlutSkin you can find so many changes comparing to the default skin that I can’t present all of them here. I suggest you to go through the panels in order to see with your eyes all the changes!!

BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS OR REQUESTS, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE ALT FOLDERS AND ALSO AT THE READ ME AND TUTORIAL FILES!!

If you prefer SS'kits as default kits, you can download this and replace the kits folder located here: Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2022\skins\fm2022flutskin_dark\graphics\pictures\kits
HERE
However, if you prefer edit your own kits, I also included in the pack a .pdf file explaining how you can edit the kits for Flutskin.
The sortitoutsi Backgrounds Megapack includes player, competition and stadium backgrounds, as well as beautiful city images: https://sortitoutsi.net/graphics/style/17/sortitoutsi-backgrounds-megapack
As always FlutSkin is completely free to download and I hope you enjoy it. However, if you want, you can reward my work donating whatever amount you wish. Any small amount is really appreciated.
You can donate by clicking here:

THE SKIN IS TOTALLY COMPATIBLE WITH 1920x1080 SCREEN RESOLUTION AND 4k (windows display settings 200%; game 100%).
YOU SHOULD USE IT IN FULL WINDOWS, ICONS ONLY
Important note regarding TV LOGOS:
Although the default tv logo is the one I use, of course you can easily change it; for that you just have to go to skin/graphics/icons/tv logos. In that folder there is a alt folder with many TV logos. You just have to replace the tv logo.png and the tv [email protected] for that one you want. Of course you should rename the new logos as tv logo and tv logo@2x. You also can use other logos made by you. The procedure to use them is exactly the same. However, I should remember that yo should use logos with the right height. For tv logo you should use 25px and for the @2x you should use 50px.
Resolution requirements:
This skin was made to work properly in 3840x2160 (4K with windows display settings 200%) and also 1920x1080 (1080p) full screen mode, sidebar icons only. As a result, some panels won’t work properly in other resolutions.

Thanks for version 5 flut.
Leeds1919
Tremendous work
the new club overview is amazing
Cheers @flut
@flut Hey Mate. Flut-Skin Version 5.0 = amazing!
i have one Idea: you can see my Player Overview in the game.
how can i set that Idea into the Game? = the red sector (4 panels) to one panel = to see the career statistics in “details” = the big career statistics (more then just: played Games/Goals).
how can i/we use that?
Many Thanks my Friend from Portugal
Cheers from Germany
flut
Thanks!! And also for your donation!!
Unfortunately we can't do a ticket to be competition-specific….
However, and is the best I can do, I can use a tab for choose the ticket we want to be displayed.
Regarding the alt, for use it you should copy the png/jpg files included in the alt folder and place them in Football Manager 2023\skins\fm2023flutskin_dark\graphics\boxes\custom, replacing the originals. However, as I referred above, after replaced, that new pictures will be always displayed.
cheers
In meantime I did a test and create tabs, as I told you. Here is the effect with four tabs (Champions, UEFA, Conference and General) but of course we can create more tabs for specific competitions.
flut
Thanks.
Something like this?
rhyswilliam1973
i download it unzip it to downloads and unzips as a folder and in that folder has more files named properties, settings, panels, graphics, fonts i go on prefrences in the game and its not there help please
DazS8
Great idea, looks good.
flut
THanks DazS8, my friend!
I also made the ticket for Portuguese league 🙂

I haven't looked into it, so it's just speculation - but could there be the possibility of using value_based_picture against id="comp". I don't know if it's possible on a text string, but just a thought?
vonHolzminden
That´s looking realy nice.

@flut Hi. First of all, thank you very much for this quality skin that you have continued for years. I wonder which one are you using as stadium package? I could not find the Dragao image in your posts in any of the packages I used. (I am actively using Sortitoutsi Backgrounds)
@flut you are so great! yes, with the “big” panel at the middle bottom, we can have a great player statistic overview. (i changed just the background wallpaper, to the screen in my post before and change the some panels to show up, you can see in my screen before)
+ with the tabs for the tickets, we can choose for each competiton (or at the moment, some of them) - very cool!
flut
After extracted the pack, open the folder and you will see a folder named fm23flutskin_dark. Is that folder (with those other folders inside) that you should place directly in the skins folder of the game.
flut
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried in that way but without succes. However, since I am not a programmer expert I don't know if I did it correctly. Thanks anyway.
flut
Hi and thanks.
Here is the file.
flut
Thanks. If you want the player overview in that way, I place the file in my last comment to Robin. 🙂
flut
Hi and thanks!! 🙂
I believ you don't have it since that picture is a picture I use in my game but I never sent it for upload (I changed many pictures for myself 🙂 ).
Grzegorz Karwat
Witajcie, mam mały problem z wyświetlaniem koszulek w panelu zawodnika, ktoś pomoże jak to naprawić?
Hello, I have a small problem with the jersey display in the player panel, anyone can help how to fix it?
flut
Hi
You have to go to your graphics folder of the game and remove the folder 2D kits ZOOMED since the skin works with a different ZOOMED folder and the game are reading your graphics folder first, instead of that one of the skin.
Grzegorz Karwat
Thank you, I deleted the jersey folder in the main folder in the game, but how to upload the original jerseys now?
flut
Now you should download the 2d kits prepared for Flutskin, in the following link

That looks amazing flut,

@flut wat is the best Logo pack to use for your SKINS?
@flut from your newest Skin Version, the Special Version with bigger player statistics panel has not the detailed Setting, it has the small detailed Setting
🙂 thanks for editing, Mate.
flut
Thanks.
I can try, but I need a picture of a bundesliga ticket….Couls you please send me a ticket image?
flut
I usually (not all, but most of times) use the metallic logos and I edited the skin using them. They are also the logos matching with the country locator. However, I believe is a question of taste and I believe that the great part of logos styles works well in the skin.
flut
Hi Robin. Thanks.
The file I place here was for answer your request (and it includes the option for the detailed stats in the middle box, as default). However I intend to include it as an alt. I don't like it totally since is not symetric (now, this in your screenshot i much better; however the left and right boxes seems to small and, for instance we can not display the two analyser as a set, only one each time). But I will try it 🙂
@flut: i used your 1 file, you send here, right. player overview panel.xml (copy(paste/overwrite with the existing 1 File.) ingame, Cache delete, reload the Skin.
so, i can not understand why the stats are not detailed in the middle box.
AndyS71
Flut, I dont have the 2 circles and % for the match sharpness/overall condition. ive tried looking when inserting the column but it doesnt appear to be there. can you advise how to add this please ?
flut
Humm. Is weird. I will sent you now a new file already adjusted and symmetric as yours. Please let me know if is okay. In my game is like this:
