Toolbar Control Plugin Error Message

So, I tried installing a new skin, by extracting it into the Skins folder, selecting it from the dropdown menu in GUI Appearance Settings, and checking "Display toolbar background", but when I restarted KM I got this error message:

"K-Meleon was not able to find your toolbar settings. Your selected skin may be missing or corrupt. Please, check your skin settings in the GUI appearance section of k-meleon preferences."

After clicking OK, the browser loads up normally, but the GUI is all messed up. I'm probably making some very trivial mistake, but I can't seem to figure out what exactly am I doing wrong. I followed this tutorial to the letter, except for the fact that my K-Meleon folder is located in Programs instead of Program Files... confused smiley

P.S.: I realise it's pretty rude of me to come asking for help without even introducing myself first, but... I really suck at introductions.

I think that the background file is missing in your skin folder.

Keep back.bmp in another skin folder (Phoenity for example) and put in in your skin folder.

Restart K-Meleon, and the error message ought not to appear again.

Hmm, but I double-checked, and the bmp file is already there.

Edit: Nevermind, I found out what was causing the error. For some reason, the skin folder had been extracted inside another folder with the same name (like a chinese box). Deleting the middle folder fixed the "error".smiling smiley
