3. Then click on the 'Import' option text link.




There will be a short delay after you click the 'Import' link, this is quite normal. Your server and IPB is now extracting and creating the directories needed for your skin automatically.
4. To make this newest skin the default version that shows on your forum - go to the 'Skins & Templates' section once again and click on the 'Manage Skin Sets' link. You will then be shown all of the skin sets currently installed on your board in list form.



5. Locate which skin you require and click the 'Edit' link next to it on the right hand side.



6. Right at the bottom of the properties on the page for the skin, you will be able to view the option to 'Set as default skin set?'

Select the button 'Yes' and then complete this action by clicking on the 'Edit Skin Set' button.



You have now set a skin as default on your forum and this will show for all members unless they choose to select a different skin option (if you have other skins installed) from their 'My Controls settings'.
