I appreciate the quick action on this, but unfortunately Patch 2696
doesn't resolve this in the way we need to. That patch does this:

1. Adds skins to the admin web UI. This is no good, though, because we
specifically left it out of the admin web UI because the feature is
still experimental and may be a security risk.

2. Gives all users in "No Institution" the ability to use skins.
However, since this is an institution-level config, it would be more
useful for admins to be able to decide whether the "No Institution" can
use skins just like any other institution.

As described above, all we need to do for this bug is to make it so that
the skins checkbox is exposed on the configuration screen for "No
Institution". So I'm going to revert the patch and implement it that
way.

Title:
  Users who are in "No Institution" can't use skins

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Even if you activate skins in config.php, users who belong to "No
  Institution" can't use skins. This is because the institution-level
  skins config is hidden from the "No Institution" config screen (since
  it shows only a subset of the available configuration options), and so
  it defaults to false.
