I'd be interested as well. My employer is going to be rolling out a new site design soon, and it'd be great to have our Wikis match everything else with regard to look and feel.

I'd love to get an overview on creating a new skin. I would be especially interested in the "tales from the real world" aspects of working with RL, what is and isn't possible without implementing hooks, and lessons learned from past skins the two of you have worked on.
