It was considered deprecated and was not maintained anymore for some quite time now, and we decided to remove it. If you are still you want to use it, you can still download it and deploy it in your wiki instance (see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Toucan+Skin ) Colibri is now the only skin we bundle by default in XWiki products. XWiki skins are much more than just some css and js files, writing a full skin from scratch requires quite a lot of work. > > Could someone please tell me how I can create a custom skin?

This is the easiest way of achieving what you want. For more info, look http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Color+Theme+Application 2) You can follow the tutorial on Overriding a skin and override the parts which you want to change. This approach is a little bit harder.
