you're looking at the textures, not the patches.  If you want to change  
the background sky texture, load the image into the sky# (# being the sky  
number you want to change) patch.  That should do it.  f_sky1 is just a  
name used for walls, but it's patch is changed in the program depending  
on what level you are on. 

Are you editing Doom 1 or 2?

   there is no quake mailing list there. (i should know, i started it)  
the list was started to distribute quaketalk (and is moderated), but i am  
no lonegr accepting subscriptions, since the list is to be resolved anyway. 

   at this point any general quake mailing list would turn out just like  
alt.games.quake and i see no need for it.
