After the file is unzipped you should see all of the .gifs and the .txt file.

If there isn't a folder already made for the skin then you have to create it. Click on the theme folder then click on File>New>Folder and give it the exact same name as the skin. You should then select all of the files(.gifs and .txt files) and move them into the new folder.

After you've done all of that, right click on the unzipped file and click on Rename. Press a cursor key so the name stays and at the end of the filename type in .lwtp. After that, cut the file and paste it in the theme folder in your .limewire folder. Do not paste it in the folder with the .gifs and .txt files!! Your skin should now show up in your LimeWire! To use it, click on View>Apply Skins(in LimeWire) and you should see the skin in the list!

I got the same thing too. When you see that, click on Find Sources. It will count down for a bit but then the skin will start downloading.
