Did you make sure that the skin folder and .lwtp file is in the right spot?

Alright, help me out...
The directory "C://documents and settings/my username/limewire" doesn't exist.
The limewire directory, in program files, doesn't have a "themes" folder,
it has a .JAR file named "themes". I don't know where to put my skin files!!!!!
Help me out please!

It changed. Mine is somewhere else. The location should be at c: documents and settings/your user name/application data/limewire/themes and that's where it is. But you need to be able to view hidden files and folders. To do this if you haven't already you need to open a folder and click tools. Then when it comes up click the view tab. Then scroll down to where it says hidden files and folders. When your there it says don't show hidden folders and files. Change that to view hidden files and folders. Then find the limewire folder where it is at above. I hope this helps.

It helped. That's exactly where the right folder was. Thanks.

Default Still no Skins

I have done all of this stuff I have read on here, I'm so fed up with Vista I am ready to give this brand new laptop a good thrashing with a baseball bat. I finally got the themes in the right folders and finally got them to show up in my list in limewire but when I select one it says "this theme is out of date, please download the latest version" then redirects me back to that same page that I just downloaded it from. i also downloaded one through limewire and when it asked me if I wanted it to be my current theme I said yes and geuss what it said "this them is out of date, please download the latest version" then redirects me to the same **** page. Can someone please help me with this. How can these themes be out of date when it redirects me right back to the same page?
