One other question, not being a coder I rely heavily on exact instructions. Where you say:

Add the following to the beginning of the "threadbit" template:

<if condition="$show['thread_seperator']">
<tr>
	<td class="thead" colspan="2">&nbsp;</td>
	<td class="thead" colspan="<if condition="$show['inlinemod']">5<else />4</if>">$thread[heading]</td>
</tr>
</if>

Do you put that at the absolute beginning of the file? Meaning even before the first <tr> is encountered, or just after that very first <tr> ?

Referring to this first one already existing in the template...

<tr>
	<td class="alt1" id="td_threadstatusicon_$thread[realthreadid]">
		$thread[openclose_editable]
