You have to pack the FILES in the skin's, not the folder in Skins folder.
Let me explain better:
Go inside your skin's folder, like C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! Live\Skins\abstract skin, and then put everything into a single .zip file, and rename it to .plsk.

Maybe you could send your .plsk file so that we can see what's wrong. But that error message is because of unpropper packing, like using .rar or zipping the folder, FYI.

Of course it doesn't work, because that's the wrong way of doing it -_-

You have to ZIP the contents of the folder, and then rename it from .zip to .plsk.

But wait...
