1 year old skin not working now

[Franco]

My first skin I worked on about a year ago used to work (what I had finished so far). It consisted of only a body, map, and button set. Now when I try to use it, it will not load but the icon is there?!? I figure that maybe you need to do something more with a llater version of QCD for the skin to even show up. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I'm not quite following which icon you're speaking. Tray-icon? But skins should be backward-compatible so I guess the problem is in the skin.

The icon you select in the installed skins directory to apply a particular skin. I have not changed anything about the skin. I don't know what is happening :mad:

Can you upload the skin somewhere?

[Franco]

yes, please let me know how

[Qaz]

If it's not very large you can add it as an attachment to your post. Or if you have webspace somewhere.

[Franco]

Here it is!

Thanks for your help!

For one, it's missing SkinKid.ini
But pretty fun idea :)

[Franco]

Skinkid.ini? how do I fix that?

[Qaz]

It's in the skinning doc. You can get that from devzone.

[Franco]

Found it, but did not understand how to apply. Can you please help?

[Qaz]

Add the attachment from this post to the skin and rename it as SkinKid.ini

[Franco]

Thanks, but the skin still will not load! Oh well

Odd as I tried it myself and it worked just fine...
