Dark Matter is based on the Titan skin for the Nova 2, but instead of a gray background, it has a black background. It includes headers from various science fiction and fantasy genres and has shades of blue in it. The editing instructions for the various headers are included in the zip file. Included in the headers are Star Trek, Stargate, Dungeons and Dragons, and Battlestar Galactica

Install instructions
NOTE: The skin folder MUST be named darkmatter. All lowercase, all one word.
-
Check that the files are in the proper folder. You should have folders called _global, admin, login, main and wiki. If you do not, something is wrong and you need to contact me asap. My email may be found in the yml file.
-
Decide which header you would like to have on your site.
-
Copy and paste the header in the following folders: admin/images main/images wiki/images
Remember, it must be named headerbg.png
Now you need to upload the skin to your site.
-
Open your FTP program.
-
Go to your site in your FTP program. Open it to the nova folder. You should see folders called applications and nova. Go into the applications folder.
-
You should see a bunch of new subfolders. One at the bottom should be views. Go into views.
-
You should now see all the skins on your site.
On the side of your FTP program that shows your computer, go to the folder where the Dark Matter skin is located. -
Drag the Dark Matter folder from the side of your computer, to the side with the skins. Make sure your mouse does not touch one of the other skins. That will place the Dark Matter skin in that other skin. Try to aim for the files below the skins.
-
Now that it is uploaded, you must now name it properly. It must be named darkmatter or it will not work. All lower case, all one word.
-
Log into your Nova site.
-
Under Site Management on the side menu, go to Skin Catalogue.
-
Now you should see the skin Dark Matter with an Install button on the same line. Click the button.
You're done!
