@bolid74 Tremendous work with these kits mate - you're a kit making machine!, and thank you so much for sharing.
I hate to be critical given all your fantastic work, but the badge on this is not quite right - you've used a kind of hybrid "old badge and centenary badge". The one you're used on the 3D kit is spot on.
I assume you've got it in hand and will be sorting for the full pack release, but wanted to point it out just in case.

Hi mate - sorry for the delay in responding, as mons said, I don't get round to visiting sortitoursi as often as I used to, or as often as I'd like.
Interesting that there is not a config in the defaults 3D kits. I've tried experimenting with creating 25 all black default kits (makes it easy to spot if they are being used!) and adding a config to it on the same lines as in the 2D kit pack, but, no SI ain't gonna make it that easy. All I've managed to do is make the kits that hang behind your 3D manager on the start screen black!

For those in the pack I just re-sized the SI ones because they were too wide for the SS style shirts, but that was back in FM17, however the FM2019 numbers are thinner anyway so you don't need the ones in the pack (I no longer use them).
However, if you really wanted to create a set from scratch you need something like Photoshop - but be warned, with 99 numbers to create it's a drawn out painfully boring process.
1. You basically create a transparent square approx. 90 pixels wide x 80 pixels tall.
2. Add the number 88 (because 88 is the widest number in the set) as a text layer using your preferred red font and red "ink"
3. Change the font size so that it almost fills the 90 x 80 box
4. Duplicate that layer - he original then becomes your number template - toggle it so that layer is not showing
5. In the duplicate layer, edit the text to change the number to the next one you want (don't do any more resizing).
6. Then you "rasterise" the duplicate layer you created (which basically turns the number into a shape) and add a green stroke (it's one of the Photoshop effects) 2 pixels wide.
7. Resize the canvas to 220 pixels x 220 pixels (which doesn't do anything to the number you have created, just adds more empty space around it.
8. Save that as X.png (with X being the number you have made).
9. Delete, the created layer.
10. Toggle the template layer so that it is showing again.
12. Go to step 4.
There are other ways of course, but the above is what I would do.

@MirkoFerrari6 I get what you mean now. It is possible.
There are 14 files (0.png to 13.png) in the attached zip. Extract them and then place those 14 files in the following location, REPLACING the 14 files with the same name that are already there:
C:\Users\YOUR NAME\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2019\graphics\pictures\kits\2d\outfield\front\default\logos
Enjoy :-)

Not sure I understand what you mean, this pack does include logo and sponsor for the default kits as you can see from the screenshots in the OP.

Glad to know you've got it working, and thanks for the confirmation that the critical part of the file path is the bit after the user data folder.
#451133 Fidney's SS Style Default Kits for FM18 & FM19
Fidney
In theory - I change my user data folder slightly for FM19 Touch so that it uses the same as FM19 and I have no problems in FM Touch either, but it is still on the C drive, which might be key. Having my user data folder on a different drive isn't anything I've tried so I've no idea what effect that would have.
#451126 Fidney's SS Style Default Kits for FM18 & FM19
Fidney
OK, you are seeing the SI effect overlay instead of mine (which looks so much better if it was the right shape, so I feel a little experimenting might be in order!
C:\Users\YOUR NAME\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2019\graphics\pictures\kits\2d\outfield\front\default (with everything from graphics in lower case).
If the file path differs in any way, or if you've got, for example, "Kits" instead of "kits" then you will still see the SS kit shape, but with the SI overlay.
This is what I see:

I just dragged all my graphics over from my Football Manager 2018 directory to my Football Manager 2019 directory, and I am not seeing any issues.
Could you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

The default kits this year are identical to last, and there are no additional designs added this year.
#433799 Android Real Names (FMT)
Fidney
OK, first of all, the Android version has the same folder structure as the PC version, so in theory you can just copy across whatever you have on your PC onto your tablet.
However - at least in my case - for the graphics it simply could not cope with copying across so many small files and it would always time out (or my patience would), so for the bulk of your graphics you need to create fmf archives (which is how SI provide the in-game graphics) using the archiving tool.
Second problem I hit was that it did not like very large files and fmf archive over 2Gb refused to transfer to my tablet. I wanted ALL the club badges on my tablet, so I actually had to create 2 fmf archives for the Normal sized ones, each with it's own config.
So, in the end I have fmf files for faces (this one I downloaded and is a reduced file), flags, kits, stadiums and trophies, then rather than a clubs.fmf I have a clubs folder and inside that I have a normal.fmf a normal2.fmf and a small.fmf
You can still have the same folders in ...graphics/pictures as you do on the PC with unarchived graphics in (which I have for some custom graphics for a made up club) and they work just as well and alongside the .fmf archives it's just that it's not practical to have all the graphics this way - you need bulk in an .fmf file.
So, once you have the graphics on your android, you are half-way there. You need to switch skins for them to show.
I downloaded a set of skins, and each skin was quadruplicated (is that a word?!) - for example it came with "fmc dark graphics", "fmc dark graphics1", "fmc dark graphics2" and "fmc dark graphics3" and instructions said that for your graphics to show you need to switch skins which seemed fair enough.
But what I didn't realise was that the first time you use a skin it locks the graphics for that particular skin to whatever you have at that time - so if you add logos then switch skins, the logos will show, but if you then add kits you need to switch to another skin for them to show too, and just to make it as frustrating as hell - if you switch back to the previous skin only the logos will show. Took me ages and a whole lot of swearing to work this out, and by the time I had, I had switched between all available skins so I had to "make" another version of that skin (which is copying and renaming en existing version, and editing the skin_config.xml - easy if you are familiar with this kind of fiddling, but daunting if not).
For ease and to save yourself a lot of pain and make sure you get all the graphics you want in place on the tablet first, THEN change the skin.
Hope this helps (or at least doesn't confuse).

Yorkshire, which everyone knows is God's own country anyway, has now finally been recognised as a nation - by CONIFA, the Confederation of Independent Football Associations, which is the football federation for all associations outside FIFA.

Thanks @A11_Smithy & @brian-q, good spot - obviously need to fire my QC team!!
I have added the missing kit syle 56 graphics, corrected the configs and updated the downloads to v3.
Kits 26 & 27 both match the SI defaults, so I will not be changing those:
SI Default Kits on the left, SS Default Kits on on the right.
I do note that they were the other way round in FM17

#426475 Android Real Names (FMT)
Fidney
Simple answer is yes.
The Android installation has the same folder structure as the PC version. The same real names patch (or any edt and lnc files) that works on the PC version will also work on the Android version. I am using just fine it on my Android installation at the moment.
Same goes for graphics (logos, kit-packs, facepacks etc) though there's a few more hoops to jump through than on the PC to get them working.
