Hi I'm new to making skins... can someone just give me the basic information? I've never done it before, I don't have Xanga premium, I don't know how to work adobe photoshop. I'm sorry if this is a pain, but I really need help. I'd really appreciate it. biggrin.gif

What u need is basic CSS style sheet customize to however u want it. Paste the code onto your custom headers in your look and feel page. This is just basic customizing.. if u want to go for the more unique and fancy look.. u gotta get adobe photoshop or paint pro shop

for more scripts.. please visit our Xanga scripts happy.gif

Also, I know how to work xanga and getting skins from createblog.com on there- the only thing I'm new to is how to make them instead of copying and pasting them onto my xanga site. thanx! :)

You just have to learn how to do that by yourself, although there are tutorials on it in Webdesign. Try looking around the site before asking here.

lala already have adobe photoshop. Just don't know how to use it. Once you have photoshop, you can play around with the program like drawing and editting using all the features. Im also a bit of a newb with photoshop but im learning as I use it.

Their tons of resources online with tutorials using all the features. You can also buy books if you want or watch tutorial videos which are great help for me.

To make skins, you should first learn some html and javascript at least. Also need to learn how to use photoshop. It not going to take a day to make a skin. Their not going to be anyway someone can make help you if you don't know the basics first. You can also go to webdesign chat to find information on skins as well.
