Default Skins for dom 2

Bes Sones has made a few alternative skins for dom 2. You can get them from the mods page.

Seems it's more pleasant for the eyes than the original that comes with dom2

I'll give it a try...

Looks nice.

Does it affect the screen "behind" the maps?
I keep thinking that someone should do a Version of that with a keypress chart around the rim so that it shows in the map view when you scroll to the edge.

Yes, the background behind the map changes...its a repeating circle pattern.

Has anyone jumped on this? How about a combination between the keypress chart and a background screen for maps? It would be a great addition to a combination mod and map and help files and background screens for newbie tutorial zip-file

Ok, I would *really* like to use these skins but I cant figure out how to use Unrar to decompress them! I've got the file from the Illwinter site and some unrar program but it looks like it runs in DOS or something. I use Win 98 SE... please help me!
