All you need is Sysmetrix and an image editor - the rest is up to your imagination.

Create any graphics you want to use and build your skin from the Sysmetrix Configuration.

I suggest opening a skin you like and seeing what the Settings are under "Sysmetrix Configuration", "Theme Settings".

As a starting point you can just make a rectangle....say 1024 pixels wide x 60 high and just use the built in graphics for bar graphs, histograms and textual items. Note that there is a "Sysmetrix Documentation" selection in the right-click menu. It's helpful for text formatting and other config info.

Sysmetrix is a good app to start out skinning. Once you get into it you'll find it very easy.
