You've found a nice skin/style that you want to install on your forum? GOOD! You can do this in 4 easy steps:

1. download skin's zip file to your computer and extract somewhere on your computer where you'll easily find it. Desktop works best for most people.
2. Most skins come in a folder named for the skin. So, upload the skins' folder to your forum's images directory. Your image path will look something like this images/name of skin/all other folders inside (attachments, buttons, misc, statusicons, etc. )
3. Go to your ACP > Styles & Templates > Download / Upload Styles
4. On the right, go to Import Style XML File - click on browse, locate the xml file on your desktop (or whereever you saved the download at), double click it so that it shows in the browse box, then scroll to the bottom and click Import.

If your images don't show up on your forum, re-check where you downloaded your images to.

Thanks

all skins require you upload them to a certain directory not just the /images folder
also if you notice there are images not displying after installing the XML file then right click on the text where the image should be and you will get the location of where the image should be then all you need to do is upload it the folder
