Skins & Logo's don't show up in FM09

Hi Guys. I am playing FM2009 on my MacBook Pro (using Leopard...10.5.5) and am having a problem getting skins and logos etc to show up in my game.

The default location for save files and graphics on FM09 is:

/Users/olim/Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2009/

and I have recently downloaded the Steklo 2009 skin (http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=70616) and simply placed it: /Users/olim/Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2009/skins

I have not messed with any of the skin files at all but why is it not showing up in FM at all? Only the default skin files are shown. I should also say that I have read the FM09 guide which is a sticky at the top of this forum (http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=37980)

Thanks

Did you extract the contents of the 7z file?

I had the same problem but the following tip allowed the skins to show up.

You want just one level of folder, for example:

...\skins\superblue\superblue.xml + other folders (panels, graphics...) - CORRECT

...\skins\superblue\superblue\superblue.xml + other folders (panels, graphics...) - WRONG

If yours is wrong, change your folders around so they are correct.

Unfortunately, the font colours in some skins do not appear correctly. (I have tried the config.xml solution to end up in just a grey screen)
