ahhhh---that makes alot of sense--- edit the templates, export the style since the templates are in the style--then import them onto the life forum. That way you have kicked the down time alot--and you can work for a couple days getting the templates taken care of.
Very nice...
One question, when you say copy your database---do you mean make a physical copy of it and run that? My database knowledge is pretty slim--I only know what I have learned with installing VBB and creating a database...
