Thanks again for your reply, Timo.

The site I am working on is a "practice" version of the live site. It is on a development machine locally. Since I have been brought in to work on an existing site, continuing where it had been left off, the idea behind the practice version is so that I can break stuff and fix what I've broken without impacting the live site on the Net. Therefore, there is no link I can post for analysis. Thanks for willing to assist me that way though. 

Many thanks for the resource at skinningtoolkit.com . . . it's just the kind of reference I need.  I found a book by Nina Meiers, "Beginning DotNetNuke Design, Skinning and Management", but it is still in the publishing process and won't be available until May of next year.  So it is good to have some comparable resources for now.


Thanks much again . . . until the next time I pick your brain . . .
