Welcome to a quick introduction to the world of skin development.

This tutorial will teach you how to make changes to an existing jAlbum skin, but you will also learn how to:

• install and use a sample skin in the jAlbum application
• understand the basics of a jAlbum skin
• open the jAlbum skin editor in the jAlbum application
• edit a skin with HTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

Install the sample skin

To get started you will need to install the sample skin (called "SampleOne") necessary for this tutorial. Click this link to download the skin and choose to open the file (do not choose to "Save on computer"). This will launch the jAlbum application on your computer. jAlbum will notify you that it will install the skin. Image:Example.jpg
