Very Simple DNN Skin

Is there a very simple FREE DNN skin available? I just want to play a Camtasia video on a site and all I need is the most basic skin. I have tried to just play the video in the HTML page that Camtasia will create, but it just hangs on my DNN site. So I exported the Camtasia as a simple SWF and I am using a Flash Module to play it. Now I just want a really simple skin for the site. Thanks.

Re: Very Simple DNN Skin

the simplest skin only contains a contentpane, it will look something like this:

<%@ Control language="vb" CodeBehind="~/admin/Skins/skin.vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Explicit="True" Inherits="DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.Skin" %>
<div id="ContentPane" runat="server"></div>

Is this simple enough? ;)

Re: Very Simple DNN Skin

Erik, no it is not!

I prefer working with html

<div>[SOLPARTMENU]</div>
<div>[CONTENTPANE]</div>

And I get a menu as well ;)

hehe Jan, to each his own... personaly i hate HTML skins :) Its a good thing DNN does not have any feelings about that and likes any type of skin just the same :)

The menu is a good suggestion, although i was kind of thinking along the lines of a popup screen to show the flash file in (camtasia tutorials can take up a lot of screen real estate). The popup window could do without menu then.... (just a "close" button somewhere....)
