This is how I got the Keyboard skins to display on my Samsung Captivate.
1. Created /sdcard/skins folder...... This is where the problem was for me
The skins folder you make must be in the root directory of the phone itself. Not in the sdcard folder or on your SD chip.
Skins now display and work fine.

I know this is a HUGE noob question, but exactly how do I do that?
Thanks for all your help!

Uh oh' were both in trouble because I'm a noob too
I connect my Captivate to my computer with the provided USB cable. I Googled my Captivates drivers so that windows could see it. I pressed mount in the phones task bar on the top of it's screen. Windows then saw the phone as a drive that it could open and you can see folders in there. I made a new folder and named it skins right in phone. I put the zips with skins in it. Unmounted (unplugged) went into the menus related to the Keyboard and the Skins were there to choose and use.

U simply just need astro file manager from the market (its free)
Then use ur Ph to download the zip. Open astro in ur sdcard press menu create new folder,name it skins, this is the folder u will put all ur skin zip files into. Now navigate to download folder and hold down thezip file u just downloaded andselect edit-move, finaly navigate back to the skins folder u created and hold down on it select edit-paste.
Hope this helps good luck

Ok, on a whim I downloaded 1 of the skin someone on this forum created & BOOM, there it was. So thanks to everyone for all your help. However, the Superman skin isn't showing up, so it must be the file itself?
Maybe someone could create a Superman skin, cause Lord knows I'd never be able to figure it out, lol. I have seen some unbelievable work on here, so I guess I'm asking if someone would care to make one? The zip file I put at the top of the post has an unbelievable one, but I guess since its a HTC IME skin, it wont work with this fantastic keyboard. Thanks for any consideration the fine artists from this forum take.
Again, thanks everyone for all your help!

Hello,
You've talked about a htc-ime skin with superman,
are you using the normal htc_ime right now?
cause i know where u can make it on ur own, you can choose the color of your keys, and you can place the superman icon on your spacebar.
i'll try to make you one.
