i didn't see anywhere for questions and answers, so i posted this here.

when you have a skin, how do you make a preview for it? you don't have to make a whole new board for it, right?

You have to register a new IF board and add your skin codes to it.

Yes. I make my skins by registering a test board and customizing the default codes. Then, if I want to post my skin on the SZ, I would just post the link to my test board as the preview.

Posting an active board as a skin preview is against the skins submission guidelines.

My skins, btw, are rubbish. :P

i guess that's because some members will try advertizing with it and sneak that by, right?

The best think i can think of is what you said... Create 5 boards... or..... You can do Screenshots. with one board.
