As Zubaz said, search for them; none of those skins have been removed by their authors and will show up in a search.
Now as for the ones that have been "removed," Google is your friend...

Am I missing something here...?
not missing a thing LadyS. Just go to the top tight and put in each name in the search, easy as that. If it doesn't come up then it's not available.

I got most of them from Deviantart. I'm down to six of them I can't find.

When you get to a page where you can't see anything, the husband showed me a trick to get the item; at the end of the URL in your browser's address box, like this: /windowblinds/4455, just add 'download' like so: /windowblinds/4455/download and hit enter. Now you have the item.
Sometimes I think he's too clever for his own good.

Hmmm...... I might remake Gold Carbon for windows 7, I always liked that one.

Some very old skins didn't like the WC update a while back, so if you run into a skin that doesn't download, just let us know.

The only ones that I haven't been able to get are the ones removed by their authors like Hellfire by Hippy and a few others. The hubby searched here on WC and found a lot of the Night Train skins I'd been looking for.

Unfortunately, if a member removed their own skins there isn't much that can be done.

The creators of the skins own their copyright and thus when they are removed by them it means they are no longer available for distribution...

I searched Wincustomize for the second one (at random) and found it at https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/all/search/Angelite
Gold Carbon showed up too.
