Love the look. Is anyone else having problems with the download and installation?
The file downloads and installs as aa6.wba, but appears as "unknown" in my WB
configuration window. The skin won't load properly, and when I try to uninstall it,
my machine displays a fatal error message and shuts down. Any suggestions? I really
like the look - earthy and warm.

No problem at all - and it shows in my WB config with proper title " A Brown Night " not sure what version of WB's everyone is using that are having a problem but im using wb 5 build 54 x86 - i havent updated in awhile.
Your skinning talent is very good and this is an interesting skin - although im a " plain " type of wb person - you did a wonderful job.

I am having the same installation problem as well. I tried adding it via the WB GUI without success, although the aa6 folder appears in Windows Explorer in "skins". I deleted the folder and tried installing it by double-clicking the .wba file and then clicking on the new WindowBlinds icon in the SystemTray. All that did was to give me a brown Windows Classic skin. I'm running WB version 5.01g[b].003 (build 73x86).

To make the installation work go to the windowblinds folder and delete the .u from the folder name (folder name is aa6.u should be aa6).
Worked for me.

First of all, thanks to Steven Fornell for the quick fix. 
For what it's worth, I opened the "aa6" folder in Explorer and deleted 50 unneeded files. I won't list them all here, but they are easily recognized as duplicates of the standard files with "~1" through "~10" appended to them, e.g., "aa6.uis~1", "aa6.uis~2", "Addon.Animations~1", "XPStuff.xp~1", et al. I then zipped all the remaining files and named it "aa6.wba". I uninstalled the skin and then installed it again using the new modified file and it installed correctly and all is working fine.

To quote Fairyy "No problem at all - and it shows in my WB config with proper title " A Brown Night " why would it show as "A Brown Night" on his config, yet we have to delete the .u to get it to show as "aa6"?

Changing the aa6.u folder to aa6 does the trick. Don't forget to hit the Rebuild List button on the WB control panel. Nice, refreshing, skin, well worth the few extra steps. Also, the Zippo icon package goes quite well with this WB.
