OK - It seems that someone has managed to succeed in modifying the 'makeskin.exe' program that comes with Moonshell2 download
in such a way that you can now unpack *.skn files to get the original graphics back
Download link: http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=10068
HOWEVER, it seems not everyone has had sucess when actually running the program
So I'm wondering if there's some common factor that is STOPPING the program from working for some people & working for others - hence this post
What I'd thought would be if as many people can download the modified 'makeskin.exe' & try it out on *.skn files & see if it works for them,
and regardless of success or not - they can post their results here, along with details of the computer set-up they've used
If possible, please try & keep the information in a structured form, perhaps something like:
(P.S. the above example is what I'VE tried to get the blasted thing to work)
To twiztidsinz: it's for everyone - whether they got it working or not.

Perhaps we may find a common 'feature' that stopping some of us from running the modified makeskinQUOTE said:Did it work? : NoOperating System : Windows XP Pro 32-bit + SP3
- If NO, did ANYTHING happen ? : Started *.bat file, typed in skin name as requested, saw a quick flash of some window popup, then batch file closed
If YES, what skin did you try it on (include links if possible) : N/A
If you know it - what's your processor/memory setup : Intel E6750 with 2Gb Memory (set up as 'single channel mode')
Have you got any programming languages installed (e.g. Visual Basic/Delphi/.Net/C# etc) ?? : Yes - Delphi v4
Additional Info:
> Tried it through CMD (Command Prompt), 'Drop-&-Drag' *.skn onto 'makeskin.exe' and even through different BAT's files
> Tried it in different folders - even the root directory of c: drive, in case it was because of long path names
> Tried it on a VERY old laptop 9 a PIII Acer), that has virtually NO software installed (Just the OS & a memory manager) just in case there was a security program (Firewall/Antivirus) stopping it from running
Nothing worked
