Many users are creating Custom skins based on the English Narrative Report without editing the Skin. Without edit it is like Ron is having 225 twins, they all look lovely, but other than their names, they all look the same.

I see Ron's Skin as the Mother who bears 15 children with different partners, who create together 225 different offspring of variable character and appeal.

As Genopro members, we often provide the variety.

Using Ron's skin provides an exemplary result, however there are many customisations of his Skin that are being lost because Genopro is not collecting examples. Some of these may be incorporated in the main skin, by Ron. Many new members are retiscent to edit the Skin, but may be encouraged to do so if they could be assisted by a Skin developer.

I encourage Genopro to create a special directory where sample skins (or part thereof) are displayed and their creators recorded, so that people desiring to use these adaptions to the main skin can obtain direction from their creators. This would give members of the Forum some incentive to display new Skins and assist new users in utilising their concepts. Genopro would benefit by having many reports of different character. Many of these could be packaged with the Report Generator.

This could be under a different Group within the Forum.

I see many current Forum members as being philanthropic, and would contribute welcomely to this suggestion. I have also tried to assist Genopro users who will not be helped, so I suggest a medium somewhere between the people asking for assistance and those asking for assistance in developing their Report sites.

We will have a SDK (Software Development Kit) section on our website with a lot of documentation about the report generator and how to customize skins.  Also, we plan to have a section in the forum dedicated for developers.

Hi Dan, Could you tell me what files might be changed in the final version if any, as I would like to start personalising a skin for my tree.

I usually only do this to the home and toc pages.

Thanks
