OK, problem solved. my downloaded skins were being sent to my regular download folder and were not being loaded into the application. I have to click on add new skin and navigate to the download folder, then the skin is imported into the app.
I don't know why they aren't being loaded into the bootskin program, but this way I can use the program. The first time I used bootskin pro, it froze up on reboot, butl it is ok now. Thanks for the help...Happy Thanksgiving
