Already?! -- Do you get the "Illwinter_Default" choice in the list? Have you tried browsing for the Dominions 3 directory again? (I'm afraid the program doesn't remember where it found it the last time.)

"C:\Games\dominions3" shows in the Dom3 dir field after I have used the browse button to locate it, but the "Illwinter_Default" choice does not appear in the list. I have tried several restarts and pointing to various levels of the directory tree including pointing to the Skins and the Illwinter_Default directory as well. (Using Java 1.5)

Could you open a CMD window, cd to the directory where you have the DominionsSkinBrowser.jar and run the comman "java -jar DominionsSkinBrowser.jar > DSB.txt" Browse to your Dom3 directory, then close the DominionsSkinBrowser. Send me the DSB.txt file

Hmmm multiple skins leads me to think about setting my icons so that I swap the skins for each nation I play. I would be fun to swap a leafy green forest skin when playing Pangaea for more of a stone skin playing Ulm.

Good point. I'll add some comman-line switches so it can run in batch-mode without the GUI.

Glad to see you back Leif. Id love to see some of your Dom2 stuff regenerated.

Huh. The program has actually found the Illwinter_Default skin; so it has to be a display problem, but everything looks right here.

Try to download the example skins I linked to in my first post, and put those in the skins directory. Then, if nothing happens, try to resize the application window.
