    Are you trying to upload it with ftp account? If you are well I can help you with that because I'm a expert on that, but are you trying to upload it by the administrator's panel on the skins thing? Because I have no idea how to do that with admin panel. Only ftp is what I can help with you.

    You will need to CHMOD your uploads/tmp folders to 777. This should allow you to copy the uploaded template to the tmp folder.Then you will need to CHMOD the skinimages and skincache folders. I can't remember the names of them, but it should be easy enough to find.

    What, never heard of "CHMOD" is it a mod you have to install? Because the last time I had InvasionPowerBoard was like in January and I have never heard of CHMOD. I just usually use the ftp. If you have anymore info about CHMOD please put more info about it. - Pixel

    Okay in your ACP goto the Skins and templates. Edit the settings for your theme and you should see something that says images path or somethign that means teh same. Change that to something that looks like your templates images folder.

    Well I still don't understand this CHMOD. Well here's my little tour on how I upload my skins.

    Login ftp Account -> public_html -> forums -> Templates -> :sorcerer: <- That's where you paste your skin file from your desktop then you go to your ipb skin administrator then you put some adding thingys and go to the main site deatails and then you put that template as your defualt template. Wow it's been long time since I used ipb and still know lot's of things about it.
