Hi Chris,

I'm new as well, but just resolved this same issue with another skin. I had to add the USER control to the .ascx file for the skin.  Basically this in the same section as your other Register statements:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="USER" Src="~/Admin/Skins/User.ascx" %>

And then this, whereever you want the control:

<dnn:USER ID="dnnUser" runat="server" CssClass="yourCSSClass"/>

Then tweak the CSS as needed.  Although not exactly the same thing, this video got me pointed in the right direction with regard to where to look for all this stuff:

Hope that helps.
