I recently created a skin for DNN. I zipped the files and uploaded the zip file. When I upload I get an error saying that one of the pictures was in wrong format, a thumbs.bpp file. I can't find the file anywhere in my folder, even when I view hidden files. The new skin shows up in the drop-down menu; however, when I choose it I get a message saying "no skins found". Can anyone help? Thanks, Eddie

well it's not the thumb.bpp file - it's the signature left when you preview windows in a folder - you can ignore that one, or delete the thumbs.db file that is usually greyed out in the folder - but the other error is that you have tried to zip the file from outside the folder.

go into the folder where the files are sitting .. then - right click and add to zip - use that method.

I bet if you unzip it - you'll see a skinfoldername/skinfoldername/files  rather than skinfoldername/files

Try that
