How to skin
I have 4.0 of this forum software, and I'm wondering how to skin it? All that comes with it is the defult theam, so how do you make more? Can I eat the defult? Or what?

Theoritically, you can export the default skin, then import it back, as another skin (This has not been tested as this is a new feature, not sure what will happen, lol)
You can then edit the various files using 'Edit'.

Note that skinning is based on Smarty, and it's as simple as first designing a page in your favourite HTML editor, then adding the various {$...} tags.

Supposedly, if you export it then import the new archive, it will be another skin, you won't be overriding the original one.

Yes, but where do I put them for importing them? All I see is a list of about 4 skins.

Should I release the skin I made?

Chris.. is there anything that needs to be changed in skins from back in earlier releases?

Probably but let Chris change it himself if there is. I would love to see the skin you made because your awesome at graphics and I'm sure you did a great job with a skin.
