I downloaded a zip file from dnnskins.com and opened it in extensions in my host site. The first error message I get is:
This package does not appear to be a valid DotNetNuke Extension as it does not have a manifest. Old (legacy) Skins and Containers do not contain manifests. If this package is a legacy Skin or Container Package please check the appropriate radio button below, and click Next.

I then clicked on the Skin radio button and clicked next and I get this error message:
A critical error has occurred.
Could not find a part of the path 'c:\boswinfs01\home\users\web\b517\ez.bethhaddox\jabophotos\Install\Temp\pej1x2d0\DXD5InTune_UnZipMe_WN9nh.dnn'.

This is the first skin I have tried to download and as you can see, I'm not having much luck. I am using Community DNN and I am in the Host site.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Beth

please try unzipping it first- many skin packages contain a number of skins, each in their own zip file so you may need to do that so you can upload the individual skin zip files

file name DXD5InTune_UnZipMe clearly indicates, that you need to unzip the outer package prior to installing your skin.
