6. Set naming guide

As you've probably realized by now, doing skin sets can get rather complicated - especially if you're doing a set with costum meshes in all 3 skin tones...
I've made a text file for myself, that I use when I make sets - this help me from getting too confused and messing things up. You can use my guide if you want to (get it here), but it's not necesary. To me it's a great tool, but if you think it makes thing even more complicated, don't bother ;)

7. Testing

Testing your skin set is very important. It's so easy to make a typing error without noticing, so do check if everything works in your game before uploading the skin to a website.
You need to test the hands and nude, as well as night, swim and formal wear.
The nude can be tested by making your sim take a shower/bath.

8. Credit

If you put any renamed meshes up for download, remember that you still have to give credit to the original mesh maker.
And remember to put in the read-me file that the skinset does NOT work with Hot Date or Vacation.
