Stardock Forums
As the title says I'm after an in depth tutorial for Skinstudio 7, as I've never done any modding or skinning before and would like to have a bash at it, but am a little daunted about it, so I would like to get hold of a real in depth tutorial if one even exists.
so am i. i just bought the pro version to make an animated startmenu, but there is noewhere that tells how i can make one. the dialog dosent really give any hints. help please?
There are a few tutorials here that go over the basics. http://wiki.wincustomize.com/wiki/Category:Tutorials
That should get you started. The best way to see how a skin is made, is to download one and look at it in skinstudio to see how it's put together.
If you have any questions once you get started, just ask in these forums. There are plenty of helpful people here. 
Yep, there IS a lack of any real documentation available for Object Desktop, but as Xiandi points out there, there are some nice tutorials and "how-to's" available around the web, and over at Wincustomize as well. There sure seems to be alot of folks willing to share their experience with others around the Stardock forums here !!! Personally, I believe that more info being included with the different components of OD would be invaluable, particularly to beginners like myself. Also, even if a manual covering OD as a whole or separate manuals made available for a price on the site here would find many takers !!! (I'd be one fer sure and fer certain' !!!). When I read the Blog Post concerning the future of various OD programs and the compatibility conundrum, it sure seems that Stardock has a pretty packed plate at the time too, though. ALSO, (to make a long story longer...), there is a plethora of great Skinners and artists that willingly make their creations available to us neophytes out here, and Many Thanks to them !!!! Keep up the great work folks and thanks to Stardock for their Great software !!!!
