Will it ruin my style?

Hi Mark,

The best thing to do before upgrading your own vBulletin forum is to setup a test site, and install the modifications and style on that.

Generally going from major release to major 3.6 to 3.7 templates require a lot of work to upgrade. Going from minor version to minor version, most the time they are unchanged/slight modifications ex: 3.7.1 to 3.7.2.

Most modifications will work with the latest version of vBulletin, however there is never any way to be sure, other than upgrading a test site to make sure first.
