as the error indicates, "object reference not set to an instance of an object."
Meaning you're trying to use an object without an existing instance of that object.
f.e. you have a class Car with a property named Color. When you try to change car.color, just like that, it will give you the above error. when you first CREATE a car (f.e. dim Toyota as new car), you will be able to reach and change the color property.

so in code:

Code:
public class Car

    Public Sub New()

    End sub

    Private _carColor As System.Drawing.Color
    Public Property carColor() As System.Drawing.Color
        Get
            Return _carColor
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As System.Drawing.Color)
            _carColor = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Sub Drive
        messagebox.show("Vroam vroam")
    End Sub

End class

WRONG:

Code:
dim Toyota as Car
Toyota.color = Drawing.Color.White
Toyota.drive()

CORRECT

Code:
dim Toyota as new Car
Toyota.color = Drawing.Color.White
Toyota.drive()

That's all some basic stuff you need to learn before playing with skins etc.. i'd suggest starting with Console Applications before breaking your head over Windows Forms
