Thought I would open up a thread to post skins I have made. Currently some are ok, some are awful.
I also thought it might be a good idea to discuss ways in making skins in photoshop. Most skin makers are very, very good and I don't know how they achieve some of their blending techniques. So if anyone wishes to discuss 'tricks of the trade' please don't hesitate to do so.
Without further ado (and likely interest), the skins..

To Install: Download the rar file and extract its contents to the GFX/SKINS folder of your HoI2 installation. WARNING! Please note that this will overwrite some of the existing skins. Make a copy of your SKINS folder beforehand so you can still keep your originals should you wish to go back to the originals.
Aye.
