Look up....there is the word 'Upload'....that's the one you want....then follow the 'prompts'.

Note that any images used should have links to their source included.....to assist with issues of copyright.....

If you're using StardockCentral, click the Web Browser button. Load up WinCusto, and you'll see the upload link.

godstand2....your uploads were only a single image.

You need to zip the working skin folder ....the BMP/s and ini into a 'zip' and rename it to .bootskin....

Eg....mytheme.zip becomes mytheme.bootskin

Your extensions on your system are hidden....only change the name to 'Armor'. When you upload it, it will go as a zip.

First, open Folders Options in Control Panel and under View tab un-check Hide Known File Extensions. Now you will see all your extensions and follow the instructions above:

Notably: ....Eg....mytheme.zip becomes mytheme.bootskin

...in your case, it would be Armor. zip becomes Armor.bootskin

Great...

BTW: you're not 'thick'...I wasn't very clear in the re-naming. For future reference, many of the files you upload or download are actually zip files simply re-named with the extension of the proggie it's for. As an example; a DX theme is nothing more the a zip file with a dxtheme extension...hope that helps you in the future..
