Nope soz mate aint happenin for me,

OK once you've unzipped it you get an unzipped version of the file yes? When you double click to open there will be another file you have to open to get into the others (pics graphics etc.)
This is what I did

1. In the skins folder right click on the file you have unzipped and click on "explore". You should then see files appearing on the left or right hand side

2. Underneath the file you clicked on should be a file with the exact same name. left click the file and drag into the "skins" file (it will then ask you something just click yes) the skin should now work.

hope i've explained OK

another method, open the rar or zip file, click on turnstyle folder,copy and paste to your cm directory/data/skin. Usually this method will always works.
