The mjp file for this skin is still all wrong somehow...
It is correctly adding the directory under Skins\Standard View, but, it is also leaving a copy of all of the skin files in MC's root directory?
I'm not sure what's going on.
The 877.zip file does not contain the folder, only the files. In my experience, the archive should have the folder, with the skin components inside.
The mjr file itself is way more involved than the ones that install my skins. Is all that extra stuff (that I don't fully understand) necessary?
Mine simply contain:
--- Code: ---[Package]
Name=Arctic Winter HC
Action=INSTALLSKIN
Url=http://URL/Arctic%20Winter%20HC.zip
--- End code ---
To be sure, I deleted the folder in Standard View and tried again, with the same result.
I click the Download button, and instruct the browser to open the file with the package installer.

It's doing the same thing if instead of telling the browser to open the mjp file you tell Win Explorer to open it.
bob:
Try it again.
It should be good now.
It shouldn't have had the action it appears, that's what caused it to write to the MC27 installation dir.
marko:
That's it sorted now. Cheers bob.

One of the primary features of this skin is the user can choose from multiple image options for various skin elements (i.e., play buttons, close/min/max buttons, volume bar, track bar, among many, many, others) in order to tweak the skin to their personal taste. I had started to put together an "image reference document” to make it easier to find/select these images, including image descriptions, instructions, the specific XML location, etc., all to facilitate editing the XML.
However, that takes much time and effort, and I am not sure if anyone would even use it. Since nobody has volunteered whether they are taking advantage of this feature, I guess I will just ask directly. Is anyone modifying the skin? Is anyone using any of the 6 different configurations? Or is everyone just using the baseline main.xml “as-is”? If it is the latter, I guess I will shelve that project.
For those who have no idea what I am talking about, read post #1. You may also want to check out the 18 hi-resolution slides I made: https://www.docdroid.net/Rlg6sth/dib-configs-pdf. It shows all 6 configs (automatically included when you download the skin from the accessories page), with each config in blue, green, and red (green & red uses MC's Skin Effects). The MC Skin Effect "grayscale" also looks great, but that is not shown in the linked document.

Nice looking skin. Unfortunately, I'm not able to use it on the Mac.
