Skinning K-Meleon v0.8

How to change skins.

  • Skins are folders contained in your "C:\Program Files\K-Meleon\skins" folder.
  • Skins are downloaded in zip format. Extract the files into "C:\Program Files\K-Meleon\skins".
  • Open K-Meleon, go to Edit>Preferences>Display>Skin and select a skin from the list.
  • Select "Show Toolbar Background". Click OK.
  • Exit K-Meleon and loader if used. You will restart K-Meleon with you new skin.
  • Some older skins from v0.7 may not show the background image. Rename the image to back.bmp for use in K-Meleon v0.8.
