This document is a guide to creating and installing skins - custom interface appearance styles - for Plesk™. Here you can find the structure of skin directories as well as its contents description, instructions on how to create your own custom skin and how to install it and make useable on your server.
In Plesk a skin is in fact a set of CSS and image files. The CSS files define the style of the Plesk interface elements; the image files are the Plesk interface icons, logotype images and other pictures, used in CSS files. All these files, placed in corresponding sub-directories, compose the structure of the skin directory.
The development and/or modification of a skin require a strong knowledge of Cascading Style Sheets. It is absolutely necessary due to the fact that the process of creating a custom skin is largely a matter of editing selectors in CSS files.
Skins are an easy and flexible way to diversify your Plesk user interface appearance. Using skins you can change the colors of the interface areas, set new fonts properties, use different images for icons in the interface, etc.
It takes only a few clicks to replace one skin with another. Different skins can be used by different users at one server.
