Sky skin for the Amiko Alien 2 box "HELP"

new_to_this1

Hi all, I am very new to all of this. I have recently upgraded from a sky f5 box to an amiko alien 2 box.
I did this in the hope I'd be able to have something that would mimic the sky plus box as close as possible.
I have been doing a fair bit of internet digging and I have seen several "sky skins" that I think could be what I am looking for.
My problem is where do I find them so I can download and is there a step by step guide for installation.
Your patience and advice is very much appreciated

Thanks.

Look under MENU > PLUGINS press GREEN to ADD PLUGIN and look for the skin you want.

Hi Gerry,
Thanks for your reply.
I haven't downloaded any skins yet. I understand I would have to download them, put them on the usb pen and connect to the box before I'd be able to add the plug in.
I am looking to know as to where I can download such skins.
Once again thanks.

Shouldn't that be green (download) and then it's doubtful the Sky skin they ask for will be in the default repository. May be easier to just flash one of the Boards images which have he skin setup

When I go to MENU>PLUGINS the window displayed has my a calculate plugin activated.
The red option says Start OSD green says Delete.

If i could find one to flash that would be great.

Correct, green. Wasn't near a box at the time. I don't know if the Sky skin is readily available.

Sounds like you're using Spark not Enigma

Op, you need to head on over to the big Enigma thread for help installing an Enigma image, some if these come preconfigured and have the Sky skin
