If you follow the rule that you shoud set up an "editor" user and set them and them alone to the new style. Then so long as you keep backups of the files you are changing. Which is easy as we allow you 4 custom styles, then you can make mistakes and recover from them, learning as you go.

i left it plain white to begin with, but when i sat back and looked at it, i didn't like it all that much..........so i added the grey colour so that it blends in with the rest of the original template. Thanx for your honest opinion though _________________ "The Don" http://www.formulaforum.myfreeforum.org

Made some small changes today to both my sites first http://holidaychat.myfreeforum.org Added a link to my other site in the overall header, and put the Posts since last visit on another line along with Mark All Forums read which I tend to use a lot. http://holidayadvice.myfreeforum.org Changed new topic, post reply and locked buttons. Also changed the icons for new posts etc. Small things at the moment, but every little step takes me closer! _________________ Childminders, Long Eaton, Sawley and Sandiacre - Nottingham

Been busy playing around ok this is what i have done(with some help form Admin and members off of here) Changed all icons to suit the fourm theme, joker smiles, english news ticker, online clock, back to main page button on all pages and a bookmark and lastly a hit counter. Also have centered the header titles to each forum. And of course made a logo myself to suit the theme of the forum 3 pics rolled into one. It would be nice for any non G.M.T +0 to pop over to see if the clock works in your time zone. Is it too much ????? Http://funnyworld.myfreeforum.org Just to note i have also made a spare dupicate template so if things go pear shaped i can always revert back to a fully working template Remember a forum is for life (fingers crossed) not just for christmas _________________ XXVIII/ I/ MCMLXXI
