mk_i, you need to get permission from both the original author of that IPB skin, and Invision themselves, before you make the skin. You'll do all the work for it just for them to turn round and say you can't use it.
See Audentio's topic about the MyInvision Skin. It's in a similar situation.
The problem is you can't use any images, CSS or html (that look like?) you get from ipbforumskins.com or from IPB itself. Have a look at Invision's Software Licence. Two points:
1. You don't own a copy of Invision, so you can't use any of it's graphics legally, even if someone else gives you them.
2. Even if you did have a copy of Invision (legally, bought from IPS), you can't use the graphics for myBB due to their software agreements (link above):
Even I can't use images from IPB for my myBB forum, even though I own an IPS licence.
