The easiest way to do this is to add a sub directory under skin1/images/ ( skin1/images/my_skins/file.gif ) this way when you use the {$ImageDir} just add " /my_skins" before your image file name.

I appreciate everyone's thoughts. I think what I'll do is create new sub sets of templates under /skin1. It seems the most straightforward. You're no messenger of doom, funkydunk.
