You're looking for maxis default skins... or default skins to replace the maxis ones?

There are several default skins in the genetics downloads here at insim. Just look for the word "defaults" (or "default").
Also MTS (http://modthesims.info/browse.php?tag=defaults&go=Go&gs=1&f=346&gs=1&showType=1&gameOrig=1&filter=0&typenormal=1&typepicked=1&typefeatured=1&username=&csort=0).

Firstly:  http://www.7-zip.org/ (http://www.7-zip.org/)

Opens .rar files, along with .zip and other listed file formats.  Download is free.  ;)

Secondly, there's a whole lot of default replacements out there, and it's kind of hard to just go out and search for every single one.  Is there anything in particular you're looking for?  Maxis Match?  Realistic?  If you've looked here on this site in the skintones section (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/board,324.0.html) and a bunch of other places, and you haven't found what you're looking for, then you might want to give us a better idea of what kind of defaults you have in mind.  I'm sure you'll be able to find something close to your tastes in skintone if you can do that for us.  :)

Thanks a lot! I have needed a link to a .rar program for such a long time! It is hard to find .zips that are maxis defaults.   ;D

Well, like I said in my original post, I didn't find any I liked here on Insim. That kinda sucks, but I would like skins that are maxis matchy, but have more detail and are a bit more shiny.

OK, that makes more sense. I couldn't figure out what you wanted since the game already comes with Maxis defaults. You want Maxis match skintones.

Have you seen this one (http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=245921)?

Some on GoS  here (http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=8661.0) and here (http://www.digitalperversion.net/gardenofshadows/index.php?topic=10643.0).

Also try Kiki's Phasmaxian skintones: http://www.simscave.com/index.php?topic=11973.0 There are no pictures but they are very Maxis-like but add more detail to the face.

"Non-shiny" is also almost the definition of Maxis-match skintones. If you want skintones that are shiny, then you don't want Maxis-match but something more realistic. Maybe if you looked in the section where members are posting pictures of their sims and provided some pictures here as to what sort of skintone you want, we would be able to help you better. Because everything you've been linked to so far is non-shiny because it's Maxis-match.

On second thoughts, maybe my skintone (http://engram-au.livejournal.com/7009.html) will do for you? There area also matching monster defaults (http://engram-au.livejournal.com/12831.html). I wasn't going to link to it but since I started talking about the shine factor, perhaps this would actually suit you. It's the Maxis skintone with the Louis blush/facemask permanently over the face so that the nose and forehead area is more defined and slightly shiny. The body area is unchanged except the females have nipples.

You might also foind something you like inside the 6 pages of Bordyshop items at Sirona Sims:

http://www.sironasims.com/category/bodyshop

If using a default set, remember that you can have one and only one default set installed in your game at any time.
