I find the best way to start is to open Skin Studio and open a default skin image (set it to open in a program such as photoshop.) Then use it as a base to drawn a completly new image. Once you have a new image you can delete or hide the layer and save as PNG (for uploading to your new skin) and PSD (for future editing)

How about the wiki? http://wiki.wincustomize.com/wiki/SkinStudio
Skinstudio isn't used top create the images, it's used to apply them. You need a separate app to create adn modify images.
