• Download the plugin JAR and place it inside of all the Bukkit / Spigot servers on which you want to enable the SkinAPI.
• Create a MySQL database (preferably named "skinapi").
• Restart your server, and open the config.yml file.
• Change the database configuration to fit your database name, username & password.
