Skinning

Skinning is basically changing the look (and only the look) of something in RA2.

It can be done on components (by editing the pictures) on your Components/[insert component name here]/Maps folder, although some components can't be skinned that way), an arena (nearly the same but in your Arenas folder), or bots (simply tweaking the paintjob by exporting it).
