Are you double clicking on the file first to open it, then copying over the folders/files inside?

If not that is what the problem will be, i suggest downloading and using 7zip as it better than anything else at opening large files.

When you download skins, kits, logo's etc they are compressed into a 'zip' file, this makes the file smaller and quicker to download. I'll give some instructions on how to install anything you download.

1 - Double click the file to open it (using 7zip)

2 - Once opened you need to move all the folders inside to Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2015\graphics, you may need to make the graphics folder yourself first.

3 - Once the files/folders have copied over (this can take a while if its a large file) open your game and go to Preferences, then Interface

4 - Click on 'Clear Cache' then click on 'Reload Skin'.

5 - Click 'Confirm' and now when you play your game you should have all your new graphics showing

It doesn't matter mate, just double click on the .zip to open it, then move the contents into the graphics folder in Documents.
