On the loading screen after I mod the skin the overlay text still appear over my new loading screen skin. Is there any way I can modify this text or make it disappear altogether?

You cannot do this by just modifying skins.

It can be done only when creating a mod package, by clicking the "Strings" menu followed by "Edit Table". The loading screen items are found under the "LOAD" tab, half way down.

However, it's possible to edit the "strings.tdb" file but i haven't explored into doing that yet.

If you do this, you end up overwriting my custom strings.tdb if you've installed it.

What's that mean?

Any new level utilizing my presets and my strings.tdb will not have EVA announce new structures being under attack or destroyed to you, and you alone.

Is it worth it? Depends, I don't think so.

Well thats up to them to decide. If there clever enough and do wish to keep your strings.tdb they can edit it to make the changes to remove the loading screen text. It's not too difficult to edit the file if you know how.
