Recently bought OD, with the whole "sha-bang". Initially, I was told that it is not necessary to have SkinStudio to skin the windows GUI. I played around using my graphics proggie to change the look of existing skins, but felt out of the loop, so to speak. Let it be known I am not a programmer by any means. After experimenting with SkinStudio, I feel just as lost and disconnected. I have copiously studied the available documentation, I know quite abit is outdated, but at this stage I wouldn't know the difference! My "poll" is how do you learn, what was your tried and true method at "picking this up?"
I am primarily looking for the "path" taken by the majority, guess I need a sense of knowing others were where I am "standing."

Thanks!!!!
