after reading this and another concept skin thread it dawned on me that a lot of skins never make it because the person with a dream of a skin is either
but rarely both.
That is why I totally agree with the comment that a Git Hub repo be opened for community contributions and the hopeful pairing of artist(s) and coder(s) to collaborate and keep the skin's dream (and future) alive![Nod Nod](https://forum.kodi.tv/images/smilies/yes4lo.gif)
the artistic folks would need a crash course in using GitHub to do basic(s) like forking a repo, creating a pull request, etc
put at most one or two folks "in charge" of the final say-so's (and veto) and I think you may have a recipe for more skins crawling out of CONCEPT and WIP status.
I'd offer some help but I usually put my spare cycles towards the skin Titan... but I really think some of the recent (and past) concepts are good ideas.
Krypton is coming quickly to RC milestone and then soon after that a Release... not that it matters with the rolling dev cycle of Kodi.
So skin artists and skin coders - find your partners!
