Now you need to download a copy of CutePDF Writer (freeware) to convert the powerpoint into a pdf.

BTW: Great job. I'll try using it to see if I can skin.

Oh. Didn't see the animation slides.

It won't show animation. I dislike animation anyway. I just figured that maybe not everyone has ms powerpoint. Don't know if openoffice could handle it.

Will it show slide transitions and such? No.
But here's a PDF.

Screw CutePDF. I've got a full version of Acrobat, courtesy of work.

Here it is in PDF format:
How To Skin RR (requires Acrobat Reader 7.0)

@Widower - There is only I think 2 animations, one of which helps the understanding a tiny tiny bit. No biggie.

@DP - Thanks, I have a full copy of Acrobat too curtesy of my brother's work. Thanks for the PDF - I included it above!

Nice work Even though it was some work to view it, I didn't have Powerpoint or Acrobat installed.

your guide gives a real good basic understanding of the skinning process, & is awsome in it's simplicity & details at the same time.......did I say THANK YOU....

Glad to help. I did it because I think skinning or skin editing is something that really anyone can do but People are intimidated by uneccessarily. Plus, I hope it takes a bit of the pressure off Guino to have to help people with small basic changes they can make to their own Skins.

I chose the presentation method because I think it creates a focused environment where people pay more attetion and retain more detail. One thing at a time.

BTW, any feedback would be appreciated too. Especially from those who are not really familiar with skinning in the first place. I want to know if this helps and/or if I left something unclear.

it's still unclear how the numeric points are determined for positioning, but I haven't had my system in yet to play with it, so I don't know if that's self explanitory or not when in the editor....
