Can't change skin by scruff304 on 11-02-2009 at 10:55 AM

Good day all.

First of all, thanks to WDZ for helping me out with my profile.

I seem to be having a problem with updating my WLM skin. Whenever I try load it, I get error message,"The File you tried to load does not appear to be a valid Messenger Plus! skin Pack."

To my understanding the version I have is compatible with the skin, and it isn't a dodge skin either, as I downloaded it (Them actually) From this site.

Does anybody have any ideas for me?

Thanks

Clear your browser cache and try again. If that doesn't work, do you have another browser you can try downloading from?

My guess is something modified the file while downloading. Some aggressive security (firewall/virus scanner/internet filtering), or a bad connection could cause that.

Checked the files you mentioned and they download fine for me.

Hmmm, strange one. Will try out above and let you know.

Thing is, this happens at two different locations. Work which is xp, and home which is win7.

Will also try downloading everything again and reinstall from scratch.

Are you using any download managers/accelerators?


RE: Can't change skin by scruff304 on 11-13-2009 at 09:05 AM

So the above didn't do anything. Really really strange one hey.

@blessedguy - No i haven't. Downloaded it via IE8 and firefox. . .

Just an update, I have had no luck with above problem, still can't install skins.

In process of downloading MsgLivePlus-483. Maybe that will help?
