I am not associated with the Tdial Designer, but there are two ways to create skins using it. On required the BlueFrog Dialer, the other required the BlueFrog Touch Dialer. The difference between the two are just registry key entries.

BlueFrog Touch Dialer hides all of the keys/numbers/etc and leaves you with a blank screen on which to show your custom images. You have to input the number and letters in your .png's.

The BlueFrog Big Button dialer draws on the number and letters for you over the background, so you only have to supply the graphics via .png.

All of my graphics are kept in the \phoneskin directory. The reason for this is so the .png's can be replaced on the fly. I was working with someone who was building a "skin switcher" so you could have lots of skins downloaded and then it would copy the skin you want into the \phoneskin directory and it wouldn't require a reboot. All you have to do is overwrite the .png's in \phonesking, open and close your phone, viola, skin changes. Registry will also update with an open/close.
