just to be explicit - this is a distinction between when your skin is 
installed versus when a report is generated from that skin.

at installation time:  the installer places the files into the 
user-writable areas of a weewx configuration - in the case of a skin, that 
means the skins directory and the user directory.  those are the files that 
are used to generate a report.

at report generation time:  the copy_once directive is one mechanism for 
telling the report generator what to do when it generates reports. 

if a directory is specified as an element in the list for copy_once, then 
copying should recurse into that directory.  so be sure to clean out any 
dot files you might have lingering about.
