Is there any way to use most of the elements of a master page to create a new skin?  It already has a content area and menu.  I'm still trying to get a handle on how to properly create my first skin and I apologize if the answer is already posted here.  I'll be happy to accept a link to the right post.  I've already downloaded the Skinning Guide and the Administration Guide.

To update this request:  What I'm trying to do at this point is convert an aspx page into an ascx file maintaining my current layout.  The two areas that I'd like to define as specific DNN modules are the breadcrumb and content pane areas.  It says I need to register those components before placing them into my page but I'm not sur how to register them!  I need to add something that looks like <dnn:BREADCRUMB runat="server" id="dnnBreadrumb">  but how do I register that in the page?
