I am not trying to leach but I am interested in knowing how you custom code skins? I can make a skin PSD and I have but now I want to know how I start coding it. If anyone had a tutorial on how to start coding or a deminstratinal/tutorial video on how to do it then I'll be interesting in knowing so send me a PM.
Thanks bro. ( I use 3.2.2 ) - (So if theres any differences in coding different versions then please cover that?)

If you have ever edited a skin before, then you're well on your way! 
It's recommended that you have some basic knowledge of how CSS and HTML works before attempting this, but if you do, then all you need to know is that you dig in and start editing the CSS and HTML to reshape the default skin to how you want it to look.
Start by creating a new skin set on your board. This is your fresh canvas.
Next, I'd recommend maybe sketching out what you want your skin to look like in Photoshop or any design program to give yourself a visual reference as to what you plan on doing.
Then you dig into the code and start changing colors and moving code until you get what you want. That's all there is to it. There's no right or wrong way.
