You'll have to edit the skin and put in your own paths. Right-click the skin and select "edit skin". In the file that opens up, you might find some variables with file paths (if it's coded nicely). Change these to your needs.

If you don't find any of them, they might be hidden in an "include" file. There will be a line somewhere at the top saying @include=some/path/Variables.inc or something like that. Find that file and open it in a text editor (don't worry about file extensions) and see if your paths are in there. The file is probably located somewhere in C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\Name_of_your_skin_suite.
Have more fun creating skins with Sublime Text 2 and the Rainmeter Package!
