New to the XBMC community, I'm blown away by the quality of the work and the community! Thanks ahead of time.

My question, I've spent a considerable amount of time tweaking a skin to my liking, but I'd like to try another skin. If I change from skin A to skin B, will it retain all my settings (backgrounds, view settings, etc) for skin A if I choose to go back?

The only thing it may not retain is your view settings - it depends on how the skins differ in what they call the different views.
