What is a skin?
A skin is comprised of one or two "templates" with a cascading style sheet to control
the look and feel of your storefront. These templates determine a framework around
the site's main content area where categories, products, the cart, and other information
will be displayed. Common template elements are logos, headers, horizontal and vertical
navigation, footers, search, and an optional "home" or "splash" page that is your
store's landing page.
Please note that prices below are estimates that may vary depending on the complexity
of your needs.
The Starter Skin Package
Site elements included in the Starter Skin:
- Header: The header generally includes your store logo, and account relevant links.

store telephone/contact information, and any other store specific information.
