Is there a way to convert the old skins into the new style.. I have been having some trouble because the old skin forum images do not work with the latest 9.5v style.. any idea would help.. Thanks

This isnt really possible because even though the CSS files are very similar, V9 uses PNG images for the images to look better especially between black and white skins.

Also the buttons with text have been replaced so that the text is part of the page not the button.

You would need to recreate the images as both GIF (for IE 6 and below) and PNG files, with buttons being blank to be used as backgrounds.
