Skuzzy, been there done that. I am placing them in the right file folder, the strange thing is if I download one at a time, the skin files show up in the correct folder. But than when I leave the download site, and go to the skins folder, the skins are not there. Double, and triple checked the file location. I got it right, I think the problem is with Vista. By the way, it worked fine until the last update, not sure what differnce that made.
While in the game, is there a way to force a complete autodownload of skins?
