How to skin - Help (Experience needed) - phebx - 2013-01-25

I'm new to the whole XBMC front-end/HTPC thing but I love what I see so far. I'm building an HTPC very soon and I will running xbmc. I've tried some great skins but I'm interested in either creating my own or using "confluence" and tweaking it. I have no idea where to start. Can anyone help me out? it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Tongue

Or you could read the STICKIED thread in this subforum:

- Skinning for beginners - Foundation skin, skinning tools, and tips

The best tip is to just start editing the xml files and reload the skin to see your changes.
