It's very easy to use and maintain! You can upload your files in two ways. Create an archive and make it available in the downloads section and upload your source to the repository using TortaoiseSVN (or any other SVN management program you'd like, I prefer Tortoise for Windows and kde-svn for Linux).
Just give it try You could use it for all your zbox skins and at the same time provide an easy way for users to install or update the skins. As I said, You'll have to respect the directory structure xbmc-addons uses to be able to use the XBMC SVN installer, like so....

I'm not sure it will save you time, but I do think you will like it. Play with it to see if I'm right
You'll need to create the textures.xpr file and include the fonts dir in the trunk to allow users to download the skins from XBMC.
