how do i change my skin

[PuNkMaN]

first i'll just say that i'm on Vista Home Premium in case the skins is just another thing i can't do anything with on vista

i downloaded the Airflow skin from the vlc site and i put it in "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\skins" and i also put "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\skins\Airflow.vlt" in the "Skin to use" in preferences under Interface>Main Interfaces>Skins with the advanced settings checked

but its still the default skin after i click save

OK - just checking .

Since the *.vlt file is in the skins directory you should just be able to right-click on the current skin and select "Select skin >> Airflow". Once it has been selected VLC should remember that that was the last skin used and next time you open VLC (in skin mode) it should run that one. The "Skin to use" text field in the preferences should be automatically filled in when the skin is changed.

Cheers, Arite.
