I dont care, whatever it is, count me in! /signed Although...it's not all that bad if you keep track of all the changes you make  The worst part is going back and figuring out everything you have changed when you havent been keeping track

Join Date: Oct 2005 Posts: 1,946 Location: Michigan | I waited several months to upgrade vB on my site because of this exact reason. First, the skin I was using wasn't updated for vB 3.5.x so I had to get something different. Then all the changes that were made had to be redone. What a pain. I did get to fix a few things though so that was a plus.

I'm scared to death to say ok, revert it (when the little message comes up that says I need to) because I'm afraid reverting it will wipe out any changes I've made (which of course I didn't keep track of). | ||||

| Well I am setting up a new forum. I got all the hacks added then bought a skin. Had to redo it all and it didnt work right. So I deleted everything and started again but this time with the skin added first. I then went and tried to add a hack that auto edits templates and it screwed me big time. So now I am starting all over yet again. | ||||

Join Date: Sep 2005 Posts: 10,246 Location: Athens, GA | I agree with that on some things, but on the same note...when you click revert, you do get a warning message that says "Are you sure you want to do this? Doing so, you will lose all customizations you have made to this template" I dunno about you...but I don't think it takes a programmer to figure out what that means
