nUI skin question

Will using an nUI skin possibly lower my framerates, or will it not effect it too much?

It really shouldn't affect fps at all. I don't believe that a skin would use any cpu cycles which is what generally causes a drop in fps.

That is correct... nUI skins use zero CPU cycles once you are logged in. All they do is alter which graphic textures are loaded into the user interface.
