Where I can find documentation on customizing Opera?

The "Files used by Opera" link on http://www.opera.com/docs/ redirecting back to the same location.

So, there's no trusted source of information? I understand it right?

Well, those are both "trusted" sources... Opera basically only has <a href="http://www.opera.com/docs/">Opera Docs</a> ("Files used by Opera" is probably just MIA for the moment) and <a href="http://help.opera.com">Opera Help</a>... both of which are great, if you still use Opera 8.5...lol

The most "Up to date" information, will be found on sites like OperaWiki, the <a href="http://my.opera.com/community/forums/forum.dml?id=28">Customizing</a> forum, and stuff like <a href="http://operawatch.com">OperaWatch</a> or the customizing sites (but you sort of have to already know what you are doing) like <a href="http://extendopera.org">ExtendOpera</a> and <a href="http://userjs.org">UserJS.org</a> as well as browsing through peoples blogs on My.Opera.

Also, the second link is just a bunch of buttons, no documentation. (At least I havn't found anything so far, i'm a little afraid of clicking random links on that site, even though I have daily backups, restoring my preferences is not something that I'd like to do every now and then)

Which is full of obvious info (well, obvious for anyone familiar with computers in general and Microsoft family of operating systems in particular), but I've yet to find single useful article for my needs (the explanation of layout structure and skinning mechanics).
Would be much better, if I could be able to simply disable skinning engine and use standard interface, that is common to all native programs and not looks alienated.
