    I got a mini question....how to do skins....so your members of your forum website have many choices that they can choose from?

      Making your own skin from scratch is very hard if you don't know all the html/css etc, but I belive there is a section on the IF Skin Zone where you can request skins to be made.

      www.ifskinzone.net

      I'm sure I've given you that link before. Did you not join and look around?

          I don't know what forum you're talking about, but there's probably an option in your CP which permanently sets one skin as default. Disable that. Then simply add the skins that you want to use to the list of skins. All users can now select one of those skins at will.

            Not as simple as that I don't think. But I seem to remember a skin selector code in the code section of IFSkinZone

                  It is extremely simple... you go into your Admin Control Panel for your forum, and you go to the theming section (name varies depending on what forum software you are using), and then you upload new skins. They will automatically be added to the skin selector that you see at the bottom of the page (if you are using IPB, vB, or phpBB).

                    I'm pretty sure hes using InvisionFree though, which doesn't come with a skin changer as standard.

                    Here you go, the "Supreme skin selector":

                        Works fine for me. You have to be registered and logged in on that forum, buit I suggest you do that anyway, as then you can see and use all the skins etc posted their.
