Editing Skin (section)

== Skin sharing ==
Once someone finishes work on their ShiftOS Skin, they upload it as an .skn file to a file hosting service (either a normal one, such as [http://www.sendspace.com SendSpace] or one which is made explicitly for Skins, such as [http://shiftos.net/topic883.html SKNUpload]). After the file is uploaded, the Skin creator usually posts a thread with the link to it on the [[ShiftOS Forums]]. People then download the .skn file from the hosting service, copy it to their ShiftOS directory and finally, apply it using Skin Loader. The user [[User:Kiwi7PL|Kiwi7]] attempted to simplify this process by creating a system called [[Quick Skin Downloading]], which downloaded the Skin directly to the ShiftOS directory immediately after clicking a special link. However, this system wasn't very well received by the ShiftOS community due to people having to create special links.
