Skinning portlets---help

[Archana Turaga <ar...@intervoice.com>]

Hi,
 I spent the whole day today experimenting with the layout of the portlets with respect to their color, backgroung etc. 
What i found is i can edit the jetspeed-vm and jetspeed-tab.vm to edit the portlet border etc. 

This is where my problem is:

1st question: I set the border from 0 to 6 for the table in jetspeed-vm...now all my portlets have a border (which is what i want) but has a dark gray color...i'm trying to figure out where this color is being specified...i guess one of the stylesheets..but i know i'm going to be digging around for sometime. I want to change the color of this border...how can i do this and what is the procedure involved?

2nd question(nothing to do with skinning): I'm editing the jetspeed velocity files directly...so in future there is a new jetspeed release i'll have to make sure that i do not lose the changes i made to jetspeed.vm....is there a way to avoid this problem?

If anyone knows the answer to any of these problems please help....

Thanks in advance for your time and patience,
Regards,
Archana

Answer to your first question check  out skin.xreg  file in  conf
directory.
And for  2nd, you have to do a little. Keep  file aside and the copy  it
back.
