The name is displayed in the Assets or Shared Assets page and in lists when selecting a skin. Make the name as descriptive as possible.

Description

Enter a description for the skin.

The description is displayed below the name in the Assets or Shared Assets page and as a tool tip when selecting a skin. Ensure that the description helps users determine if they want to use this particular skin.

Copy From

Select an existing skin to use as the starting point for your new skin.

Create

Click to create and list the new skin on the Assets or Shared Assets page. The empty check box in the Available column indicates that it is not yet published and hence is not available to other users. More
