Bootskin problem..

Thursday, April 15, 2004 by Rotgut | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I just downloaded BootSkin 1.04 and am having trouble with news skins showing up in the menu. I downloaded a couple of new skins, & they don't show up in the menu. Any help will be appreciated, Thanks!!

I have double-clicked the files after download and still can't use the new skins.

There are some people with the same problem. Try this
-Change the file extension from .bootskin to .zip and then unzip the folder into your BootSkin theme's folder

I ask myself if the problem does not come from the skin files having thumbs.db inside ???
I just had trouble with Apo's ones with ANY version of Bootskin ... and no trouble (apparently with files without thumbs.db files in the .bootskin (or .zip) installation files ...

Neo, when you unzip the file, how many files are inside the skin folder?
I can only see the .ini file, the background .bmp image, the progress .bmp image and the permission text.
