Unfortunately your upload has not met our guidelines and has been rejected for the following reason:

The upload failed... i.e. there was nothing at this end to download...

Dude . . there may have been a problem with the SERVERS, not your skin. 

Try to upload the same files again.

I'm not having any problems Uploading BootSkins not sure how you do it.

I load the BootSkin into BootSkin program then use export from the file menu to make the BootSkin file then upload that file always works ok.

Have you tried using different browser to uplaod I use FF.

KiLlAxKeV92288 ....you do have one bootskin that uploaded OK.... and 3 that did not, and none of those has a preview image showing.

You will need to rename the files [so it is a genuine new upload and not an overwrite of the existing]...eg...

Rename the skin 'Airsoft' to 'Airsoft2'

Change the bootskin file name from 'airsoft.bootskin'  to 'Airsoft2.bootskin' and upload

Name the preview jpeg something clever like 'Airsoft2preview.jpg' [you know it makes sense] and upload.

Preview will be a 'full size' [640x480] jpg, and the Bootskin file is a simple zip archive including the 'bootskin.ini', the background bitmap [bmp] and the progress bitmap [bmp] [these images sharing the identical 4bit/16-colour palette] - the zip archive suffix [zip] can be manually renamed to 'bootskin'...eg. Airsoft.zip becomes Airsoft.bootskin.

If bootskin uploads did work for you once there is no reason they won't keep working...unless you have 'changed' something in your methodology...
