First of all, I have search and understand the general idea. I know that components go to components folder, as well with the PanelsUI and fonts. But even when I do this, I cannot get any of the 4 skins I tried to work. Perhaps they are outdated since they were made years ago and there are new versions of fb2k out.
So then I went ahead and copied the component, fonts and PUI to their directories. When I open fb2k, it prompts me to select my interface module, where I select "Panels UI." After that, I get this error: The following components are incompatible with this foobar2000 version and will function partially or incorrectly: - foo_ui_panels.dll : Panels UI Please update these components to their latest versions if possible. Failed to load DLL: foo_ui_columns.dll Reason: Wrong version number; this component appears to have been built with an outdated version of the foobar2000 SDK and needs to be recompiled with newer version in order to load; please contact the author of this component to obtain an updated version of this component. I also had a problem with this tech skin: http://br3tt.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2ovre0 Yet there is NO components, fonts, PUI files in that zip/rar file. So where am I supposed to get those files? Ive also ran into problems where I copy and paste the components/fonts/PUI files to their directories, then start fb2k and it does NOT tell me I have a new interface modules. I go to preferences and there is no Panels UI option even after I copy and pasted all of the correct files. WTF!!! this is so confusing especially since im a pretty computer savvy guy |

Panels UI is no longer supported and has not been for quite a while.
Regarding the tech skin...support is best asked at deviantart art. terry |

Id rather just stick to the newest version so do you know where I can find UPDATED skins?
Also seems that the TECH skin posted in the OP was update for the new fb2k. I cannot however figure out how to install it. This post has been edited by donttrip619: Oct 9 2010, 22:27 |

But installation process is described on the TECH 1.4 web page. Directions say to install fonts, components, configurations etc into the directories. Yet I cannot find these fonts/components/config files in the zip/rar file I downloaded from that page. Included in the zip file: tech1.4.fcl, images, scripts, changelog.txt, readme,txt. OK, so where are the fonts/components/config files??? lol |

You are barking up the wrong tree here, as tpijag already said you'd best ask support on deviantart on Br3tt's deviantart page for Tech.
