How do I change the zip extension to pk3?

Hi,
I'm making my own skin, and I've noticed that I have to change the zip extension to pk3.
I've tried that in every way I could think of, but the filename always is: (skinname).pk3.zip
And I can't change the zip.
Can anyone please help me with this?

Thanks in advance

U use windoze, right? goto your folder options and make sure that "Hide file extensions for known file types" is unchecked(not on). then make your zip with your name, say (useing a fake name) woosh. now it will appear as woosh.zip. highlight it and change the .zip in its name to .pk3. now u will have a PK3 file.

In case someone would like to know:
Go to 'This Computer' or something like that... :D
(Not internet explorer!!)
Then you do Extra--> Mapoptions-->Filetypes (or something like that)-->Advanced-->Then you tick the last square that says something about the extensions

Now you can just change the .zip to .pk3
and it will work
even without all those fancy programs:D

Okay, I've done that much,
I finally found how to do it
So consider this forum closed :)

Unless anyone likes to know how to do it, if that's the case, just leave a message on my forum, and I'll tell you how:)

Would it be possible for you to upload a pic of your pk3 file, or better yet the actual pk3 file to a temporary location for me to check it out? Its a lot easier that way. Usually the only problem is a bad file name or something.

Don't worry, already done :)
Had some help from a friend, and now it's done :)
I do have one other question though...
The Game (Jedi Outcast) doesn't recognize my skin as a selectable skin.
It never show up in the list of selectable skins
Can anyone PLEASE help me with this?
Thank you VERY VERY VERY VERY (:D) much
