I don't wanna sound picky. Why do all of these CSS skins not include expamples for skinning the DNN login controls. I love the skin examples but one thing that always gives DNN away as being DNN is the login control and it's getting pretty boring to look at. Very few skins include a how-to on how to change it's apperance to match your new skin which is dissapointing. If you have some time can you add this information to your article. Thanks a bunch!

Have you taken a look at the DotNetNuke Skinning Reference Book? It may not have examples, but it does tell you what can be styled in much of DotNetNuke. You can also look at admin/security/signin.ascx and look for IDs and cssclasses that can be styled.

Hello, Can you give an example of how you would like the login control to look?

Thanks for the replys. I will try to explain. This is a screen shot of a the standard login. PICTURE LINK It would be really handy if you could show us how we can style the login button, input boxes, and font so that the colors and size would match the selected skin. PICTURE LINK I know this is just a basic example of what can be done and I am hoping there is much more that can be changed to give the login that "custom" look just like the incredible skins you have chosen. Thanks again.

If you look at admin/security/signin.ascx, you can take note of the IDs of every element in the login module. You can put styles for each of them in your skin.css file. Alternatively, you can create a container for the login module and put the styles there. That would localize that special styling to that specific container.
