Ok here i am again, asking a dufus question as usual..
 
Ok ill start from the beginning like all good posts should, im having trouble implementing a skin to my forum, i have read all articles and still cant figure it..
 
Im using my FTP to view/edit files, i have downloaded the great looking orange and black skin, replaced the files in my root folder with the files handed down from the download, i always keep the original files just in case everything goes wrong, so i renamed them to efault_style.css rinter_style.css and ss_style.css just in cas anything went wrong.... 
 
In the root folder i now have 6 files the new orange and black ones and the original ones.
 
I still cant see the new skin though!
 
Is there something im missing??

In the root folder? I think you have to put the style sheets in the css_styles folder and the forum images in the forum_images folder... that could be the issue.

If the files are in the 'CSS_styles' folder then try going into the admin panel of the forum and then going to the 'configure skin' link and try reseting the skin.
Handyman man?
