Could you write a list or mods you're using (if you can remember) can then narrow down the cause. Also could check the wowme version but just typing wowme 2.4.3 is probably what you did anyway, which unless the uploader was cross eyed should of got you the right version.
I know that http://wowskins.mmorgy.com/home.html still has old stuff from around that period, could do some testing with those.

thanks for replying er as far as i can remember the wow-me i downloaded was for this version but just incase could you give me a download link or website for them?
and i went to this website and the selection is more model swaps and not exectly my what *type* of mods im after...if you follow...
keinikaidoh could you explain more about the compatabilities? as far as i know there was a change in wow that forced you all to change youre mods to another format? and recent mods have been in a folder rather than a single file, was there another change like this between 'original wow -> tbc' ? and another betwen 'tbc -> wotlk'
if so would changing the server to wotlk make the newer folder type mods work or would i need to change to the unstable newest version addon cataclysm? i think thats what its called.

keinikaidoh im kinda helping run the server... do you know how to upgrade servers, as far as i know she is running a mangos server.
she said she used some kinds of 'tbc server repack' any ideas on where i can get one for the frozen throne or even fro cataclyzm?
*edit*
ok im on a wotlk server now but most of the patches are for 4.0+ is it posible to use them on here?
as far as i can tell the new patches are in a folder carred X-patch.mpq but its a folder
and the old ones are just a single .mpq file
are the backwards compatable or is there a way to make it work?
*edir 2* ok i tryed youre fel blood elf skin and it look all good and ok in the charecter selection screen but than crashes upon pressing enter ( this is back on the 2.4.3 server)

most of the patches now have been updated for 4.0.1 and are not compatable for previous client versions. As zilem has posted on other places, this site does not focus on private servers. You would have to find models that are made for 3.3 or before to work on your server.
Some artists have kept their old uploads up such as ScDK. You can try using his bloodelf edits or lazercat's old tauren mod as well as seskin's belf/dreanei mods. Tip: look for old posts.

yeah im helping a close friend with it she said she just downloaded some pack that lets you make a server, we decided to make the server to remember the old days when we where in a guild that dispanded around 1.4.3bc patch, we have like 8 people we know in RL all from the guild who some on from time to time to chat and maybe run an instance, i dont see the point in ruining that by updating it.
so im just guna rejoin a private server i used to play, do you know anything what i asked?

Does 2.4.3 even require WoWMe? I didn't think it did. Since you're running on a private server, its pretty safe to try it without it, as Blizzard won't ever find out.
Second thing... as was mentioned, most of the model edits on this forum are for 3.x or 4.x versions of WoW, and they are not backward compatible. There are some 2.4 mods if you search far enough back, but they might require 'going to school' on MPQs to get to work, as no one else is running 2.4 WoW to test it for you, you'll have to figure it out yourself.

'Going to school' is a figure of speech. It means that you will have to really really know how MPQs work. Try this link:
You imply that you're running the server yourself as you can just upgrade it... if that's so I recommend it, its a lot easier to find model edits for 3.3.5 than 2.4.3. I don't think 4.0.1 or later Cata private servers exist. But I won't talk more about private servers here, try mmowned.

Models edits are not backward Compatible, beside a minor patch or two, but don't count for them to be backward compatible by a major patch or expansion
Texture's is more backward compatible
High Quality (512x512) is backward compatible to 3.0
Normal Quality (256x256) is backward compatible to 1.10 and i think it's only mine which still is that, however that is going to change soon
(I might add a pre 3.0 version)
