I'd love to be able to install skins for the whole server instead of just for the current user.

It's nice to let the resellers install their own skins, but it's also nice to offer a wider choice and to have just one folder to update. No?

Hello,

This is very easy to do. Just extact the skin into:

/usr/local/directadmin/data/skins/skinname

and "chmod -R 755 *" it's contents

Yes, that's what I'm doing right now, but I would find it more convenient to have a checkbox to install a skin server wide from the cp.

Also, it would be nice to have a way to update a skin. Right now only the shell method works.

Hello,

Good point about the "update". I'll just remove the check for the "skin already exists" so that it will just overwrite the existing skin. Added to versions system.

Also, you can currently update a reseller skin by just reinstalling it with the same name. Will just overwrite the old skin (this was just added a few releases ago)
