Howdy,
I've been looking around for a while now, for some cPanel skins, that match the look of my site. There are several sites out there, however with basically, all the same skins :). I have a couple of questions:
* Is there some way I can make skins myself? If so, how?
* Is there a company that creates 100% Custom Skins?
* What should I look for in a company that provides skins (features and price wise...)

Thanks,
-- Tim

If you know html it's easy to create your own skins. Just copy the default x skin to a new name of your choice and modify the pages any way you like.

There are multiple ways of doing this. You can use WHM to download a tarball, modify and rename, the upload. You could do it all in shell. You could use an FTP program that allows SSH2 connections to log in as root, if root login is not disabled.

Any way you do it, when you create a custom skin, you need to watch for changes to the default one that need to be updated in the custom one.
