That's it. Creating skins is very easy, provided you have the tools.

We recommend NWT 'New Wad Tools' version 1.3, by Denis Müller. This program allows to insert new resources, rename it, insert raw data into resources (which is how we insert text files into Doom wad resources).

Another common wad utility is 'WinTex' version 4.0, by Olivier Montanuy.  This is similar to NWT, but runs under Windows.

If you have questions regarding the WAD tools in particular, please consult the Doom editing newsgroups, or ask questions on the Doom Legacy forum (http://www.newdoom.com/doomlegacy).

Have fun!

NOTE:  Both Wintex 3.4 and Wintex 4.2 are available here on the Epidermis Emporium site.  You can find them in the Tools section.  — Boingo.
