you need to go to a trainer and purchase the ability to skin higher.
any major city should have a guard that will direct you to a skinning trainer.
you will need to do this at 75, 150, 225, and 300.
also, the current skinner trainer you originaly started the skill with should direct you where to find the next trainer if needed.
good luck, good skinning.
(also---if you mouse over the corpse...and its Grey....no skill up will be awarded. find a higher level mob to kill and skin...it needs to be green(some times a skill up, yellow--probably a skill up, or orange--always/almost allways a skillup....red---your skill not high enough to skin it yet...find a lower level mob.)
I highly suggest you start reading up with some skinning FAQ's or profession FAQ's. this type of question would be one of the first things addressed in a FAQ...as well as there might be many other helpful hints already expressed in the FAQ's.
