I read in another forum that it appears that the default skins don't update using the automatic update process and full builds need to be downloaded and installed for this.
Is this true?

Yes, that is true. The updates only affect the exe file. We will possibly upload the default skin in the Plugins page shortly, to avoid re-installing the software.

I'm using a customized version of the default VDJ8 skin. Is there somewhere that shows or will show what has been updated in the skin so I can decide whether to incorporate the updates into my customized skin?

adding the new skins in download skin area is not a good idea, because the "home users" will not be able to download these skins.
so, there is only 2 alternatives.
1 - developers should improve the "update tool" in order to make it be able to update more things and not just the exe file.
2 - developers should release a new installer with the new skins integrated.

btw, the changes in: translations, plugins and others, are affected by this too ?

Translations are in the installer, so these are indeed affected as well.
Plugins are built into the executable, so these are automatically updated with VirtualDJ

I never had this message before. Trying to update the default skin. Do you have to uninstall VDJ first?

This is not a bug. This is by design. All versions are currently 8.0 - but different builds of this version are available during the beta process.
If you choose to re-install from the DOWNLOAD link at the top of the page you will need to uninstall the current installation first.
BUT - you will be given an option as to whether you want to delete files and settings - PRESS NO - do not delete them. Any new files will overwrite the old in the new installer anyway but if you press YES you will delete your V8 settings and databse.
