Commenting out the lines means you dont have to re-download vBulletin from the members area just to restore the queries...

Satan

Umm? So when you have downloaded and installed you boards, you delete the source files you have locally? :p

Personally, I keep all sources in a directory on my server that is not accessible from the web, so I have easy access to everything if I mess something up (not that it ever happens, but, err... well, you know ;))

you could also install this:

Trun GZIP on, and compress your images. that sould save you a ton of bandwidth.

Al: Approx how much bandwidth is saved if you use the CSS method? To me it seems quite minimal?

Using CSS saves you tons of bandwidth as every HTML page parsed is smaller. It all adds up.

My forum home was 5kb less after changing vB to use CSS Classes for fonts and not the default. However by doing that it does have its downside, you can't adjust the text size in your browser anymore.

That modification could save up to 15k on forumhome alone on an uncompressed page.

Actually, you can disable CSS in your browser under Accesibility, so you can then adjust text size.
