i have downloaded and saved into my skins folder several skins, restarted lfs and gone on to new colours but they aren't there. Can anyone suggest what is wrong?

What folder did you put them in? What's this about colors? Are you aware how to change skins ingame?

I put the skins in LFS/DATA/SKINS and then you are ment to go onto lfs and in the garage click the "new colours" button and it shows you your new skins

then all that's really left, in my experience, is the naming of the files.

How to make that skin show in colors ?

I have no idea what you're asking

Maybe his monitor can only show black and white.

ah that sucks, but stuffing a thumb in one eye and the index finger in the other, does show colors...and stars.
What skin are you talking about sir? It sounds specific and I just don't know if we were on a specific skin.
