The resolution of your screen is different. The skins use a "texture" resolution. By changing the texture detail in your graphics settings, its reducing the size of the texture resolution of the skins so that your graphics card doesnt have to store as much in its memory.

Show me which skin you are talking about.

The answer to your question is in the FAQ:

How do I install a track or model?

This depends on what type of file you have. For .saf files, just move the file to your install folder, which is usually "c:\Program Files\MX Simulator".

For .rar or .7z files, you will first need to decompress the file using WinRAR or 7-Zip. Move the decompressed file or folder to your install folder.

My only problem is that my skins look like crap in game. In the pictures and stuff they look perfect. I have all the necessary stuff downloaded, is there something i need to turn up in the settings?

make sure you graphics settings are as high as they can be until you computer starts to lag...

If not make sure you have all the bike and rider models.
