Today I made myself something, which I wished that Football Manager 2012 already had implemented. A feature to change the font size in display menu. I believe we will see that option in future, but for now I used
Base 2012 Dark skin It was made by Michael Murray, and I edited font to bigger size. I know I'll spend to much time playing this game, so I'm just taking percussion for my precious eyes

If anybody is planning to use it, I suggest making a backup from skin you are using at this moment. I don't take any responsibility, in case something goes wrong by your installment. All works by me and I uploaded exactly same file, so it should work by you as well.
Path where you should install the skin:
\My Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2012\skins\
Extract the file in advance and then copy the whole folder to above path.
Any questions, you can find me in steam, xfire, twitter, ... or you can e-mail me via
contact form.
Important!
Check following links where text gets cut out due to increasing the font size.

Honours
Red rounded border shows where text gets cut out, or character is missing due to button being over it.
If you are bothered by it, I suggest you don't use what I did. I personally don't mind few things being out of line, as long as I don't get headaches because of to small font.
It is possible that in future I'll edit the skin not only font. I do hope, that FM12 developers will be faster than me, and give the option of changing the font size in game itself.
