This may have been answered before, but I searched, and if it was, I couldn't find it.

Anyways, on to my question. When I open up certain skins in GIMP, there is a grid covering the skin and I can't see most of it. How do you get rid of this grid?

oh, that's a probleme with gimp...can't help you, sorry i use photofiltre, better i think

would you please post a screen of how this "grid" looks like?
it would help.

woaw...normally there's somethin' in the option that you can delete the grid...

What helps a little bit is layer->transparency-> Threshold Alpha and put it on 0.

Awesome, that worked, thanks.
