You can. You can upload your own skins to the platform.
where do i get the skins from?
By default, in the platform, the premium skins are already included in the account. Do you have an account?
i'm logged into it now
I just checked one of your players on your account, and you are already using a custom skin (Stormtrooper).
ok, i will ask again - where do i get the skins from. I have just taken over management of this account for my client - i know nothing about jw player and i want to customise a skin for his new website
The skins are bundled in. If you want to actually download the skins for your platform account to customize, please email our support at support <at> jwplayer <dot> com and we can send them to you.
why?
i've never heard of something like ever....what's going on here?
The default skins are available in the account. You can pick one to use. If you actually want the skins for your designers to customize certain elements of, then you need to get the from our support, as they are given out on an as requested basis. That is why.
why can't i just download them from inside the account?
The JW Player Pro Skins will go live for users in January 2014. To try the new skins out today, log in to your JW Player account and download them from the account settings page.
Because the sources are provided when they are requested. I have explained this in great detail now at this point. Please email support for the skin sources. The skins are not available for download in the account, they are simply just set to be used when you create players.
i will email in the morning - thanks for your 'help'
