The only thing I can think of (if there is a problem with the skin) is that its getting corrupted during the download. Every time though? Skuzzy verified it on their end. I believe it if he says its ok. You only have a problem when that skin is displayed. I believe it when you say that also. But whether the issue is the skin itself or your machine's rendering of that skin that causes a problem, I suppose the point is moot. Maybe your video card is allergic to that skin.
