Rating: - Enough content for a full book...?
The book is OK, there are some useful recommendations. However, the actual information about skin creation takes just a few chapters, and a good deal of the book is about DNN, installing DNN, they even throw in something about Silverlight. Which is useful, but probably not completely in the focus of the title, in my opinion.
Perhaps it would be nice to see more information about skin objects and container objects, with more information on how they look and how they can be configured. ... Read More

Let's face it - you don't use DNN for its good looks. The book was a great way for me to learn all of the customization options for DNN so I could build a great looking site.
The book has very believable practical examples and was glad to see a section about Silverlight.
