Hi guys, I bought some skins and containers and loaded on my dotnetnuke website. when I use html/text modul of dotnetnuke, I copy the html code and paste it into the module. Then, Do I have to link css files of skins and containers (there are two for each skin) in each html module ?  if so how do I do it ? where do I upload my css files in my server ? these might be too general questions, but I do not know the answers, any one who knows it welcome to response. Thanks in advance

Normally you wouldn't do anything.  The HTML/Text module will use the CSS classes defined in skin.css, and if they aren't there it will fall back to the original CSS for the site.  I say normally because there is always the possibility that the container designer changed something, but the standard hierarchy should be in play for all CSS.  You never need to specify the CSS file unless you are creating a new one.

It sounds to me like you're trying to put the code for the Skins into the TEXT/HTML module?

If you are trying to apply the skin to the website, this isn't how you would do it. There are detailed instructions regarding skinning a site in the DNN documentation, essentially you need to upload the Skin ZIP file and container ZIP files through the Host / Admin section, and if the skins aren't created specifically for DNN, you will need to modify them in order for them to work with DNN (modify the .ascx file or add tokens to the HTML). If the skins have particular CSS, you will want to add it to the skin's CSS file that will be included in the ZIP file. Once again, there are much more detailed instructions in the documentation for DNN.
