How to make a skin?

Hi There,

I want to make a new skin for CF, but i don't know how exactly.

I know i'll need to make the images in photoshop or whatever, and that i put the co-ordinates in the XML file.

But where do i specify the images that CF will be using, especially if my skin will be a totally different shape/layout to the current one. I couldn't find this in the XML.

Regards,
Rob.

you can't change the image names... they are coded... you need to redesign each image in the skin folder... you can change there sizes to whatever you need them to be...

Ok thanks for letting me know. So with things like the battery level images. All i do it edit the position of the "battery level" bit of the skin.. and the set of images will show up there?
