Hi all,

I'm just curious, but how exactly do DNN skins work, and what kinds of configuration methods do I need to understand to get them to work properly once installed?  I'm asking this because I'm currently trying to install a skin, and the instructions for it seem to be written for somebody who's really good at CSS and understanding how .CSS and .ASPX files talk to each other.  I've been discussing things with the developer on CodePlex, but it's obvious that I'm not following, so if somebody could give me the basics, or tell me the best place to look, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks for that, and I'm sorry for the delay.  I've been doing a bunch of stuff, and I haven't been at DNN for a while when I realized that my server needs to be reinstalled.  But I'm going to take a look at those resources.
