Most of them say, "extract whatever file at this folder and you are good to go." When it came to writing instructions with these skins, it seems people with very little computer knowledge were attempting to install a skin when even they could not tell the difference between the functions of Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer. The Installation instructions went through several changes until I could find one that included a short 3 step process. This would be easily understood by those who know zip files, and confuse anyone who did not know them. So for the most part if you are fine with the skins included in AIM continue to use them. I don't recommend attempting to install skins if you have little to no computer knowledge since you can easily mess things up. --July 28th Anyways, the instructions were rewritten from scratch to include support for Aim 6.9 skins. I should hear no more complaints regarding how to do this or how to do that. This tutorial covers almost every topic and issue you can come across while attempting to install a skin. I will count the Downloads to Complaints ratio to see if this new tutorial is effective.

Now it seems hes just half assed it. The instructions are outdated which usually wouldnt be a problem but the file doesnt include the readme anymore so now your reading his backwards instructions. Aim has most the colors, think we'll live i used the original long ago and it went perfectly. Now it seems hes just half assed it.

The instructions on where to put each file is actually on the skin's page and not this page. All your basically learning from here is how to extract a file. And how to move these files to specific folders. Since each skin has different instructions it's kind of unnecessary to show each step for each skin. Just realize that most other websites won't give you a step by step on how to extract. Its something that you need to know if you surf the internet.

You can use this as a guide on how to do it, but you will have to not use the examples listed on this page as the directories will be wrong. So for the main part, follow the instructions that were given in the skins section and not this page. You can change skins by clicking on the Color Wheel after you sign onto Aim 6.5 Keep in Mind that these instructions are outdated, but they do show you how to extract a file.
