problem with skinning macro for alt

[Zenthor]

I am having trouble getting this macro to work on an alt:
/cast [target=party1target, exists, dead] Skinning

I click dead mob with main, and then click this hot key but alt does not skin. His skinning is only L3 so he does not neen the artisian (or what ever) extension.
Am i doing something wrong? Got to confess...not sure what 'party1target' is...I assume its my group leader (main)?
Thanks!

This is my skinning/follow macro:
[code:1]/target [target=focus,help,nodead]; [target=party1,help,nodead]; [target=party2,help,nodead]; [target=party3,help,nodead];
/follow
/stopmacro [combat]
/petpassive
/cast [target=party1target,dead] Skinning; [nomounted] Totemic Call[/code:1]


And party1 would be the first person under your portrait (i.e. the party leader). Party2, 3, 4 are the subsequent party members under your portrait.

So, what I do, after I kill something skinnable:
1) loot it
2) click "follow" button (this macro)
3) ???
4) Profit!

Are you trying to skin mobs that are skinable at yout level and that are looted? Put loot on FFA for skinable mobs cause if anyone has loot you can not skin it. Also Check on your skinner's screen and see if the betton is getting pressed or not. Maybe your binding is messed up. Your Macro should work so I'd check to see if you get an eror mesage like not hig enbough to skin this or something like that. Here is my macro and it works if you want to experiment.


/cast [dead,exists] Skinning

Just put it at the bottom of one of your atrtack macros so it assists your main anyway but since the mob is dead it dosen't do anything after that. mine looks like this.

#showtooltip Shoot
/assist focus
/cast [target=jussa,modifier:Shift] Power Word: Shield
/cast Shoot
/stopmacro [combat]
/follow focus
/cast [dead,exists] Skinning

This is my wand macro and it is also a huddle up after combat macro, and my skinner will skin if it's looted and dead.
