    Host->Host Settings->Other Settings->File Upload Extensions is where you set it. However, there's no need to actaully upload the .psd as that's a photoshop file that's not needed for your skin other than you can use that in photoshop to change the look (colors etc.) and then repackage the skin.

    PSD is not an allowed file type for upload according to the default Host settings.
    There is no reason to allow that type to be allowed for upload, unless you want it to be. 
    It is a file type associated with Photoshop and usually used for skinning/layout reasons.
