Default New skins

I have read all the documentation involving skins, but no-where can i see how you install a completely new skin that isn't on the install menu. There are loads of examples HERE! There is a drop-down menu at the top with loads of different skins.

My questions is:

1. How do i get/download them onto my forum?

Thanks!

My website is (not that it will help): http://powerpix.forumer.com

you cant upload new templates on phpBB forumer, you can only use the current one's phpBB forumer already has, but you could always change the colour by going to Menu>Edit Sytles Data.

I have this same question, the lack of skins is awfully irritating.

But alas, it seems we can find no solace here.
