The Community Skin wiki http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Skin/CommunitySkin has a section labelled "PVRX2 Release"

It states that this is only for PVRX2 and not GBPVR and to download COMMUNITY.ZIP Version 3.0.11 updated 2008-Feb-23. So far, no confusion.

Two lines later it states: Also, there is a PVRX2 version of the SkinPlugin. with a link to Skin PlugIn and has links to two mirrors that are labelled updated 2007-JAN-27 Now, I am confused.

First it says that version 3.0.11 is ONLY FOR PVRX2 and then says that Also, there is a PVRX2 version and, on top of that, that the first version is dated 2008-feb-23 and the second version is dated 2007-jan-27.

I know it is easy to update a document without looking at the context of the changes but as it stands now, the wiki is quite confusing. A clean-up would be appreciated.

Ok, I'll see what I can think of what to do to make it less confusing.

They are two separate entities. One is a skin, the other is a plugin. The SkinPlugin does not get updated very often. It isn't really part of the skin, it is used to modify the skin.

Any ideas on how to make it less confusing?

Edit, Doh! I guess the skinplugin should say it was last updated in 2008, not 2007.

Even a statement like this and clarifying which is the PLUG-IN and which is the SKIN would help.

I think I cleaned it up some. Hope it helps. If you think it needs a little more, please let me know.

Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Yes. I think that makes it quite clear about the Community SKin and the Skin plug-in.

Thanks. I'm sure many first timers will appreciate it as much as I do.
