Here is the link from the eversion wiki about making eskins http://www.dentedboxes.com/doku.php/ever...:eskinwiki the person who could provide more info would be accident since he created eversion. You might also ask some of the eskin authors either on the dentedboxes forum or in the yamj section of this forum.

not much more info to provide, it's pretty simple and everything on the screen is editable.

The basic thing you need is notepad, all the .eskin files open in notepad, only thing you would need photoshop for is if you make icons/buttons and things

Yes just change to .swf and inside esettings.xml make sure to set check API to false so it will load on the PC. just a note colors/speed/layout differ from what it will look like on the tv sometimes
