Put either the psd file into your xion interfaces folder (C:/Programs/r2Studio/Xion/Interfaces), then on the current xion skin, right click and select choose skin. Or if it's an .xsf file, just double click the file, it will install and should auto change the skin for you.

To add to messiah1's comments, some of the skins in the library download as a .zip file. Just change the .zip to .xsf and double-clicking the file should install that skin.

Will that actually work Hankers? I tried that but it didn't work for me (just highlighting and changing the .zip to .xsf) Is that how you do it? Or are there different steps, and if so, maybe post them here for others. The way I make my .xsf is to select all the files I want in there and then right click and select Add to Zip file. After nameing it in the winzip window, I append.xsf to it and it shows as the Xion file. This is the way I was shown, but noone showed me a way to CHANGE a zip to xsf.

or put the zip file in Xions interface folder...Xion aint picky  If you just put the psd in there,the fonts may not get used.

Yes it works well for me. Just make sure you have (Folder/Options/View) the box un-checked for "Hide extensions for known file types"

yeah, i change wba to zip all the time. Just wasn't able to turn zip to .xsf or to .zip. I got it now though, you guys are handy to have around.
