This tutorial will teach you how to generate a Fubar skin and then apply it to your collection of Fubar skins.

In this tutorial I will make a basic sportbike motorcycle skin. (Note that at the end you have to save the skin TWO times, each time you replace the default Fubar code with your Generated Fubar skin code)

Step One: Find your background/wallpaper image URL/link

• Search Google for "sportbike wallpaper"

 (click for larger image)

• Change to the Images results page.

• Click one of the thumbnails you like.

• Now RIGHT click on the "See full-size image" link and COPY THE LINK LOCATION example: http://www.wallpapers.lv/images/papers/bikes/ suzuki/medium/suzuki-tl1000r-1998.jpg

You now have your wall paper background URL/link saved to the clipboard.

Step Two: Fill out the Skin Generator Form

• Click here to open the Fubar Skin Generator in a new window.

In the fields do the following:

Background Color: FFFFFF
(this will make the page background white)

Background Image/URL: Paste the URL we have in the clipboard (http://www.wallpapers.lv/images/papers/bikes/suzuki/ medium/suzuki-tl1000r-1998.jpg)

Position: Top Center

Tiled?: No

Movement: Stay Put

• Next sections:

Text Color: 000000

Heading Color: 000000

Link Color: 000000

Link Hover Color: 000000

Table Background Color: Transparent

Table Border Thickness: 2px

Table Border Style: Dotted

Table Border Color: 000000

• Now hit Generate Skin (Fubar) and you will goto the code page.

• Click in the code box, right click, Select All, right click, Copy (your code is now saved to the clipboard so you can paste in Fubar)

• Go into your Fubar skins and click "Create Skin"

• Enter a name for your skin.

• IMPORTANT: Select all of the default code and DELETE it!

before:  (click to see bigger image)

after:  (click to see bigger image)

• Now PASTE your skin code (right click, paste) into the skin code box and click "Save Skin!" (you are NOT finished yet)

IMPORANT!!

Fubar is buggy here, even though we Saved the skin, Fubar really DID NOT save it. They saved some generic code that we have to save
over a second time.

• Click Edit Skin (you will now see some generic code! Hey why does Fubar do that? I don't know.)

Select all of this code and DELETE it. Now PASTE your skin code (still saved in the clipboard) and click the Save Skin! button.

Now your skin code is saved and your skin will work for you! (Don't forget to activate the skin!)
