Installing a XenForo skin is very easy to do and will only take about 5-10 minutes. The longest part is waiting for the images to upload to your server.

As well as including a readme_install.txt with all our skins I decided to write a tutorial with detailed descriptions and screenshots for users who are not as familiar with installing skins.

Quick Installation based on BP-Black
1: Upload the image directory "BP-Black" to your server "*your forums*/xenforo/styles/BP-Black/
2: Goto Administration page click the 'appearance tab' and then from the left side menu click 'Import a style'
3: First upload style-BP-Black.xml from the 'XML Files' folder and selecting (no parent style)
4: To install the additional colors upload style-BP-BlackBlue.xml for example and select BP-Black as the child style.

Detailed Instructions based on BP-Black
Step 1) The file structure of our skin packages.


Step 2) Importing the skin XML files


Step 3) Importing the additional colors


Step 4) Changing the logo.


This tutorial was based on using the theme BP-Black. As installation of all skins are the same, simply substitute the name for BP-Black with the relevant skin name.
