You can do two things:

1.) Go to ACP -> Select a Skin -> and import one
2.) Go to fMods.com and find pre-made skins.

I am not sure, it might be a permissions error there. Post a topic about it there. fMods is out of my control, so I can't do anything unfortunately.

I noticed you edited your post. That skin will not work with your board because it is a different IPB version.

We use IPB 1.3, so check the skins version and if it works with 1.3 then it will work.

Skins could look like anything.

Basically, if you see a forum with a Forumer footer on it then it will work with IPB 1.3.

The only source for skins on Forumer is fMods, so you should really consider asking them about your permissions priblem.

I think you need a certain amount of posts to be able to see the database.... why don't you register there and ask them for help?

[No Name Forums][RCX forums][Forum Promotion][IHWC forums]

USEFUL TIP: If your support request gets resolved, click on THREAD TOOLS > MARK THIS THREAD AS SOLVED. This will mark the thread RESOLVED and will close the thread. (please use this tip!)

Please do not PM/e-mail me for support unless I ask you to.
Do a search and if you don't find your answer create a thread with your question and I will be happy to help. I can not be replying the same answer over and over in an e-mail/PM. Thanks.
