Two things

firstly, you need to spell the plugin correctly - D'oh!

Secondly, for those playing at home and have not done this before; after coping css and js to every webroot location I could see
I took a look at the HTML source and it is looking for a directory in the webroot called skinskittlish (also spelt correctly - or should that be spelled)

I created a virtual directory so next time I updated from subversion I would not need to do anything.
for Apache it looks like this
    Alias /skinskittlish "E:\websites\fcBlog.webonix.org\farcry\plugins\skinskittlish\www"


So what will happen if you have a virtual directory
and then later use the Theme admin (coming soon) and it creates a real directory of the same name?
 - apache will fail to start
 - one will take precedence; if so which one?
 - just don't do it!!


Will there be somewhere that will list all the themes available for download?

I forgot to mention you'll need to put in a virtual to point to the
skinskittlish webroot eg. ./plugins/skinskittlish/www to pick up the
style sheets.  Alternatively you can copy that folder into the project
webroot (that's what the directory install would do for example).

All the best,
