When the user first visits your site, there is no skin in your cookie. Then
you can give a default value. And after the user modifies his/her profile,
you can set it to the cookie. So I don't think it is a problem of setting
cookie.

Subject: [PHP] Setting cookie on first visit
I am using a cookie to detect what skin a user wants to display. The
problem is if a user visits the site for the first time the cookie is
not being set. I am detecting if its being set or not with
if(!isset($_COOKIE['skin'])){ ... }
It's not setting the cookie untill a user refreshes the page once. How
can I ensure it's set when it hasnt been set before?
