Help!
Skin Studio 8 is kaput!!!
I used it earlier today, now I get the following error!
I know of other users who say they get the same thing.
Tried reinstalling both SKS and WB, to no avail.
Please help as skinning is nil until it's fixed.

Even with WB 8?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but SKS 7 doesn't have the Windows 8 parts, right?

Added note, changing the time/date on your rig will mess with other programs, Skype, for one.
I'd be careful.

That is true. You could reset the date, open SKS and set it back to correct once SKS has opened as SKS only checks on app launch.
SKS7 will not have the Win8 parts (all two of them I think?), but other than that it should work just fine with WB8.

Uninstalled SKS 8 and Installed SKS 7 Pro on Win 7 Professional x64. Everything working well.

There will be an update out ASAP to sort this. Most people are back on Thursday so I have high hopes it will be done by then.
For now you can either set your date back before launching SKS, or SKS7 will work just fine on Win8. No need to install it on 7 or Vista.
Hello Neil,
any news about the update you mentioned?

I'm sure Neil (or someone else) will notify on the fix when it happens.

So, are we saying that there is no support during this week? Strange business value if that is the case.

They came back to work yesterday. Just have to be patient, or not.

I have been told the build went up on Thursday.

Try downloading through your account.

Nope.
I still have SkinStudio_v8.00_setup_sd.exe on my download page.
EDIT: nevermind ... just tried to download and install it again and it seems to have sorted the issue.
Keeping the version number unchanged is a bit weird anyway.

There's no version change, it's just the app doesn't expire now.
