There are three directories here, standard/, custom/, and contrib/.standard/ holds the standard stylesheets. These are used no matterwhat skin the user selects. If the user selects the "Classic" skin,then *only* the standard/ stylesheets are used.contrib/ holds "skins" that the user can select in their preferences.skins are in directories, and they contain files with the same namesas the files in skins/standard/. Simply putting a new directoryinto the contrib/ directory adds a new skin as an option in users'preferences.custom/ allows you to locally override the standard/ and contrib/ CSS.If you put files into the custom/ directory with the same names as the CSSfiles in skins/standard/, you can override the standard/ and contrib/CSS. For example, if you want to override some CSS inskins/standard/global.css, then you should create a file called "global.css"in custom/ and put some CSS in it. The CSS you put into files in custom/ willbe used *in addition* to the CSS in skins/standard/ or the CSS inskins/contrib/. It will apply to every skin.
