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.

Cheers for the details mate. Fortunatley i visited your site before logging on to your FTP and noticed that everything seems to be running fine. I suggest you clear the cookies and temporary files from your browser and look again, see if that makes a diffrence. ------------- Handyman man? |
