I would love for someone to make these keyboards too!!

easy, your files have twice their extension.
for example, your XML requires a normal.9.png file, but in your drawable folder, all you have is a normal.9.png.png one ;)

2 ways to solve the problem :
  • Go in your folders settings, under control panel, and UNcheck "hide known extensions"
  • or, just remove the extension you added once more ;) but I personally prefer the 1st bullet

To apply, open Better Keyboard/Smart Keyboard settings console, choose Skin/Theme.
According to the author, it is.;)

Yes. Any Better Keyboard skin is compatible, unless it's by the developers of Better Keyboard.

then just remove the 2nd extension on each of your files, once you unchecked the box, you should be able to see them. all your files finishes with ".png.png" instead of ".png".
After that, if it's still black,then the problem should be somewhere else...

you forgot the following files :
  • backspace.png.png
  • caps.png.png
  • mic.png.png
  • return.png.png
  • search.png.png
  • spacebar.png.png
just compare these filenames with the ones in your skin.xml, you will find all the mistakes ;)

the double extension, of course !
you only fixed the .9.png files, you should do the same for the other files.
in your skin.xml, you indicate to use backspace.png, but this file is actually named backspace.png.png in your drawable folder.
So, the names doesn't match, it can't work! ;)

EDIT : here is your skin, which should work now.

Only the button backgrounds are .9.png, other ones are classic .png !
If you naame them .9.png, the skin engine will search for the black lines, specific from the .9.png file format. Use this format only for stretchable pictures !

To sum up :
Name your symbols only ".png", and do the same in the skin.xml.
Don't touch the buttons anymore, if should work.
