    Sandbox Theme

    It appears that the default skin for blog 4 umbraco is the Sandbox skin. The problem is if you switch to a new skin there is no way to go back to the default Sandbox skin because it does not appear under the Design tab in the skin browser.

    How can I return the blog skin to the default Sandbox skin?

    Can I add a +1 to this question. I have made the mistake of choosing a new skin and now cannot return to the previous setting as we wish to change the Sandbox to our style for the website.

    In the end I un-installed, then re-installed the package as we'd only just started the blog.

    Not ideal, but the sandbox style sheet is in the css folder - so you could just change the macro that selects the stylesheet dynamically to a direct link to the default sandbox stylesheet.

    I looked for a reference to the skin but couldn't find it in the database or the config. Do you know where it is set?

    Blog 4 Umbraco seems to install a custom data type of 'Skin Selector', but you cannot change it in the content without going to the online skin selection, also once you do you cannot select the Sandbox CSS.

    If you just go into the master blog template and change (As in remove and replace) the macro to the following

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/sandbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
