This must be the dumbest question, but how do I install a skin?

I have tried:
- Going to System -> Settings -> Appearance -> Skin, clicking on "Skin", getting the dialog showing only "Confluence", then clicking "Get More...", then selecting a skin from the list, and finally clicking "Install". I see the "downloading" complete to 100% and then nothing.
and
- Going to System -> Settings -> Add-ons -> Get Add-ons -> XBMC.org Add-ons -> Skin, then selecting a skin from the list, and finally clicking "Install". I see the "downloading" complete to 100% and then nothing.

It never prompts me to switch skins.
Going back to Appearance -> Skin, and trying to change there never shows anything but "Confluence"

Tried restarting several times.
Tried the following skins: Amber, Ace, Aeon Nox, Aeon MQ5
Running Gotham 13.1

Here is a full log from startup, trying to install Amber skin

What am i missing?
Wiki is http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...ange_skins

Having said that, you seem to be doing it right. It should download and then give you the option to switch to the new skin. Maybe someone who understands the log can help.
Do you have issues downloading it directly?

Perhaps after try install from zip file
