I disagree with this approach of creating a custom theme. Isn't it better to only copy some of the files from the standard folder, then create a custom .css file and refer back to the standard stylesheets files using config.php? [[User:Hans de Zwart|Hans de Zwart]] 08:44, 20 February 2008 (CST)

Although I'm no themes expert, I entirely agree with Hans above. This article is not particularly good advice. A small point, the Firefox addon "Firebug" is the best thing I've found for this kind of CSS reverse engineering. --[[User:Howard Miller|Howard Miller]] 14:25, 11 May 2008 (CDT)
