Hi,

Extreme newbie question. Installed VS2008, then DNN 4.9 Starter Package - all went seemingly well, can navigate and administer host and portals.

However, in all the DNN books I bought it tells me that I should see a whole bunch of skins, such Basic Blue, Basic Red, etc. The only skin I can find on my installation is MinimalExtropy? Am I missing anything, or have the deliverables changed from when the books were published?

While I'm at it - it seems as if each time I Debug|Run (Ctrl+F5) the DNN Website project from VS2008 it will do some compiling of sorts? Is that normal/expected (sorry, I'm only 4 DNN books into this, haven't gotten to the VS2008, .NET and C# books yet)?

Best Regards,

Andy

Andy,

previously packaged skins have been removed due to missing XHTML compliance. There are a couple of free skins available (e.g. from www.dnncreatice.com, www.xd.com.au, www.akrion.net, www.dnndesigner.com, www.dnnexperts.com, www.freednnstuff.com, www.salaro.com) and you can still download previous versions and extract skins (located in /install/skin folder).


Cheers from Germany,
Sebastian Leupold
