This thread is for anyone who has a question to ask about skinning EHM. You should of course start by downloading my Graphic Guide and looking through that as it should have all your questions answered.

If you are having problems getting pieces to display or want to ask questions about design issues and/or troubleshooting post here and I'll try to get it solved for you.

I still can't install any skin here on the site. The inner folders just "explode".

It looks like this.

Look at the Announce thread directly above this one... I believe the neutralizing inner folders is due to having to use different settings in WinZip; at least that's what solved it for someone else and led Arch to write up that guide.

I hope this counts as a skinning question...

Anyway, is it possible to have different "figures" for the head coach, ass't coach, scout, trainer, etc. in their profiles? What I'm talking about are those staff figures that are used in place of a profile picture when a player or staff doesn't have a picture to display. Can they all be separated by each job, or is it coded one way? I know players are divided up, but all staff appear to be the same... and I was hoping I could try to make my own figures to put in for each job.

Thanks!
