[QUOTE="marshall, post: 64670, member: 18404"] Agreed. I didn't word my comment very well, I meant that this would be a test to work through the logistics of group skinning. It isn't really a tested model yet, so there might be some hurdles. For UI styles, it seems like there will have to be just 1 (maybe 2) people who make decisions about the style of each skin. Other people who help will have to accept that they are not "the artist" but rather "a worker" who helps the artist's vision come together. (Of course, opinions are still great, and possibly influential). Once the group skinning model gets going, then other "artists" can pitch their ideas to try to get "workers" to help make them reality. Different designs might get different workers depending on what styles they wanted to see produced. If XAML supports style sheets that would be a nice improvement; there is a lot of duplication of information in the skin files that could be eliminated with a style sheet. That would make it less of an ominous proposition for new skinners as well as reducing the chances for error. [/QUOTE]
