Downloaded skins and can't get them to work

I downloaded some UT skins and unzipped the .utx files into my textures folder, and the .int files into my system folder. I figured after that they would just show up in the menu, but no dice. What did I do wrong??

There should be a readme file with the skins that tells you what you need to do. I believe that there would typically be an entry for you to make in your UT.ini file, namely on a line with: serverpackages=

Here is a portion I copied out of my UT.ini file that has SoldierSkins_Duke added, as well as voice add-ons:

[Engine.GameEngine]
CacheSizeMegs=8
UseSound=True
serverpackages=dukepackage
serverpackages=termpackage
Serverpackages=SoldierSkins_Duke
ServerPackages=SoldierSkins
ServerPackages=CommandoSkins
ServerPackages=FCommandoSkins
ServerPackages=SGirlSkins
ServerPackages=BossSkins
ServerPackages=Botpack

Notice that you name the server package the same name as the .utx file, but without the .utx
