They're the same thing, just different names, I believe.

Most people consider templates to have every image finished on them, and skins to only have the main page done. The terms are used loosely though.

^ Yep.
Skins are said to be more the main page layout desin, not the entire set of buttons and icons and such. Templates are said to be the FULL set with everything customized. BUT they are used interchangeably to mean the same thing.

Here is where I disagree with the majority opinion on this.. Proboards let's you change skins. You change everything from the modify skins area, so it would be safe to assume that if you changed the skin completely, it would still be named "skin". A Template Definition from Google: "a blank artwork design to be used as a container and guide when preparing your artwork."That would mean that a template is a guideline and more basic than the final project, which would be the equivalent to the main page on a proboard versus the full thing. With that, I consider a full design with all the images a skin, while I consider the main stuff to be a template. However, I usually refer to them differently when talking to people since everyone just uses the opposite.
