Hiya! I'm a complete novice with this sort of stuff and I had the same problem but this thread helped a lot: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/downlo...-limewire.html though I had to experiment a bit. I'll see if I can help with my new-found knowledge!

I don't know how apply skins unless they are directly downloaded from these forums or the Limewire Skins page but hopefully this will help a little!

The themes folder was very elusive on my computer too, though you shouldn't have to create one... try copying C:\Documents and Settings\*\Application Data\LimeWire\themes (or C:\Users\*\AppData\Roaming\LimeWire\themes if you use Vista) into the window address bar, replacing the * with your computer username.

If you've found it, what follows next is quite easy.

1. Go to the download skins page, and click to save your skin.
2. In the File Name box, add .lwtp to the skin's name e.g. 'ocean_theme' becomes 'ocean_theme.lwtp'
3. Change the File Type to 'all files' (Your computer will automatically want to save it as a "zip file")
4. Click Save. Open Limewire and and it should be there after clickling Refresh Skins.

Did this help at all?
