  HI,
    I am using Telerik controls for ASP.Net Q3, 2001.I tried the Rad Skin Manager amd was trying to change the default skin. Unfortunately there was only the default skin. All the other skins are missing. This is happening to me for all the controls. Can any one help me in displaying all the available skins for the telerik controls under the Skin Property?

  Finally i got the solution for the Skin issue in Telerik Rad controls for asp.net Q3,2011. Skin Issue on reading the post, i came to that the skins for the controls have been moved from Telerik.web.dll to Telerik.web.Ui.Skins.dll. So it is necessary to refer the dll from the Bin40 of installation folder to the project. The available skins will be available if we close and re-open the project.

  Thanks for your post.  What a shame the Telerik is so inept that they can't make this information more obvious.

  Hi,
  
  I should mention that this is not the only place where the change is announced. Information about it is available in the Q3 2011 version release notes:
  http://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax/whats-new/release-history/q3-2011-version-2011-3-1115.aspx
  
  And a sticky thread is added in the forums:
  Separate Skin Assembly in RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX with Q3 2011
  
  Can you elaborate on where would you like to see such information in future?

  I'm currently dealing with the same issue.
  
  I've done the following so far...
  - Added reference to the skins dll
  - Ran project upgrade wizard
  - Closed and re-opened my project
  - Closed and re-opened Visual Studio
  
  You ask what could be done...how about just making it work out of the box. Think of the amount of time wasted by every developer who has run into this issue.
  
  Restarted Visual Studio seemed to resolve the issue.

  Hi Callon,
  
  You should not experience this problem if you are using the latest version of the controls. Are you using Q1 2012 or older version? And is your project created as a Web Site or Web Application?

  I am having the same problem. I have added Telerik.Web.UI.Skins.dll to my bin folder and added it to the project. I have added a reference to Telerik.Web.UI.Skins. I have replaced "Default" with "Office2007" as my skin name in my web.config file; and I have restarted Visual Studio, but am still getting and "unable to find an embedded skin". I am running the latest release of the controls. 
  
  What else do I need to do?
  
  Thanks!
  John
