I would like the email form to be shown on selected pages. Basically I will be creating two or three skins, and will want the form on all pages with a certain skin. How would you suggest I do it?

Trying to wrestle your form into the skin is entirely the wrong way to go about it. It is best done by simply using DNN and modules in the manner they are intended to be used.
Finish your skin, don't put any forms in it, and apply the skin to your site. Then find and install a forms module, and configure it with whatever fields and options you desire. Then use the module management interface to copy it to however many pages you want.
Exactly which form module you should use depends on what the form needs to do. If it's just a basic contact form then Orizonti's free NukeFeedback is good. If you need more fields of different types, then try the free helferlein form or Interactivewebs' Feedback Designer. I can recommend the latter. If however you need something much more complex, then look on Snowcovered.com in the forms section. There are plenty of choices and each has its fans. H2O, Xmod etc.. they are all overkill for a contact form.
