Hey everyone,
I'm new to MediaWiki, but so far I'm loving it. Powerful, full featured - definitely the best of the bunch. I have a couple of questions, and I've been searching around with no luck, so I thought someone could point me in the right direction:
1. Uploading files I've seen in mentioned in mail postings and such that people are uploading files to the server with MediaWiki, but I can't seem to find where/how to do this. Can anyone shed some light?
2. Downloadable Skins? I think I already know the answer (the answer being "not currently"), but is there a general place to obtain skins/themes?
Thanks,
Tom
About 1: Do you mean: How to set it up? How to enable it? Check http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Running_MediaWiki_on_Mandrake#Enable_Upload That did it for me. Then it is just a matter of clicking the 'upload file' link.

Wow, that was easy, can't believe I missed that one.
Thanks for the help!

Hello Tom,
All available themes are already shipped with MediaWiki.
Version 1.4 will ease the installation / creation of new skins. Once it is released, there might be people sending us new skins to include in MediaWiki ;o)
cheers,

While I'm personally waiting for 1.4, it ''is'' possible to customize a lot of things now:
That may not be "true" skinning, as you're not really defining a skin from scratch, but provided you have the required skills you can still do quite a lot there.
