Try something like this:

interfaces.py
-------------
""Mini-Interfaces"""

from zope.app.rotterdam import Rotterdam

class IMiniSkin(Rotterdam):
     """Mini-Skin"""

configure.zcml
--------------
   <!--Skin-->

   <interface
       interface=".interfaces.IMiniSkin"
       type="zope.publisher.interfaces.browser.IBrowserSkinType"
       />

   <utility
       component=".interfaces.IMiniSkin"
       provides="zope.publisher.interfaces.browser.IBrowserSkinType"
       name="MiniSkin"
       />

   <!--Main-Template-->

   <browser:page
       for="*"
       name="skin_macros"
       layer=".interfaces.IMiniSkin"
       template="template.pt"
       permission="zope.Public"
       />

   <!--View-Class-->

   <browser:page
       for="zope.app.folder.interfaces.IFolder"
       name="index.html"
       layer=".interfaces.IMiniSkin"
       class=".browser.ViewNotice"
       template="view.pt"
       permission="zope.View"
       />

   <!--Resources-->

   <browser:resource
     name="base.css"
     file="resources/base.css"
     layer=".interfaces.IMiniSkin"
     />

template.pt
