Skins Templates:

The system is designed to process an abstracted template - a design, separate from content, in its most simple form: one page of art, and one set of style instructions. Branding through text or language, not art. Programmatical control through language. Whole new skin with on piece of branding art.

Elliminated all javascript. Vertical nav bar is a tag.

A template for the publishing system is an html file, a css file and the images that are unique to that skin.

The system is designed to accommodate multiple templates and template variations.
