Skins

Today we will be looking at how to make that library all nice and shiny looking.
Skins can be useful for many reasons, they are fully customize-able, they allow you to unlock features that the standard "Confluence" skin has not implemented, they can allow an ease of access that is might not be present to some users with Confluence, and finally they can allow you to showcase all of the great artwork you should have setup in your library by now.

So let's begin, first of all you are going to need to navigate to the settings option, and then go into appearance settings. In this menu you will see an option that should say "Skin" and across from it, it should say the name of your current skin. Click this option and you should see a similar menu to the one shown below:

To get a new skin, you simply click the "Get More..." button shown in the top right hand corner.

You will then be greeted with a list of all the skins available.

To enable a skin, simply click on the skin you want, and then click install.

Kodi will download this skin for you and when complete will prompt you if you wish to use this skin. Click "Yes" when prompted

I have used the Arctic: Zephyr skin in the above picture, but to really know what's the best skin for you, you will need to try out as many as you can, and just see what feels right for you.

That's that then for today, I may publish a post of skin overviews or reviews in the future, but for now, you can always look around online for suggestions, or check out this showcase website.
