Where might there be a tutorial to make my own skins? I dont mind dlin a few to start my site, but I do want to make some of my own. So any idea where I could find a tutorial to make one of my own?

I could be mistaken but I don't think there is a skin tutorial around. It's really a self taught thing you do. That being said you can start off by looking at various styles that are available here, how they're coded, what colors seem to blend well and so on. Once you've decided on your color scheme, move on to creating graphics using the colors of your choice and continue progressing from there.

Exactly as Nikki said. No tutorial will tell you how to make skins. It's just basically a combination of image knowledge, coding knowledge and knowledge of the vBulletin template system.

seems to me that if someone here (or maybe elsewhere?) were to create such a tutorial, they'd be quite popular

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
