I'm using DNN 4.5.5.

I want to replace the default skins with something more customized. 

My question is will I lose my content on the website?  I have many pages already set up. 

I'm doing an FTP back up of all my files right now.

Thank you for your help.

Hello,

Welcome to the forum. - You will not lose any pages if you change your skin.  The content of your pages is stored in the database. For information on how DotNetNuke works check out:
An Introduction to the Principles of DotNetNuke

When you create a backup make sure you backup your database as well.

You may want to check out:
The beginners section on the tutorials page is a good place to start.

Hope this helps,

Thanks,
