    hi all,

    I am trying to install the blue-01.zip skin in my awake wordpress site and I keep getting this error:
    Error - Custom Skin not activated

    What could I possibly be doing wrong?

    By the way I just purchased awake yesterday, along with downloading the skins...

    Hello rickysad,

    Make sure your /wp-content/themes/[your_theme]/styles/ directory has 777 permissions and follow the instructions here, http://mysitemyway.com/docs/index.php?title=Uploading_and_Downloading_Skins#Uploading_your_new_skin.

    WELL, i accidentally made every directory under my theme 777 , and it still is giving me this error:
    Error: Custom skin not activated, please try again.
    this is really really frustrating .. I am over 24 hours into this issue, with no resolve... my clients
    are quite frankly upset at me.

    what can I do to resolve this?

    uploading the skins is fine.. trying to activate them is the issue.
