In computing, a skin is a custom graphical appearance preset package achieved by the use of a graphical user interface that can be applied to specific computer software, operating system, and websites to suit the purpose, topic, or tastes of different users. As such, a skin can completely change the look and feel and navigation interface of a piece of application software or operating system. Software that is capable of having a skin applied is referred to as being skinnable, and the process of writing or applying such a skin is known as skinning. Applying a skin changes a piece of software's look and feelâsome skins merely make the program more aesthetically pleasing, but others can rearrange elements of the interface, potentially making the program easier to use.
