Black and Gold 3.5

As promised I have ported over my popular Black and Gold style from vB 3.0.X to vB 3.5 and I have also made some minor changes to it. I received a lot of requests to apply the category spacing modification to the old version; however, due to time constraints I was never able to get that completed but have included it with this release (If you would like a version without this please let me know and I can release it as well.) I also modified a few of the images but the majority of them remain the same as in the previous version.

As always please let me know of any issues with the style - I tested it pretty thoroughly and wasn't able to find anything out of place but I have missed things before.

AdminCP, Styles, Upload Style, vola.

Also yes, the features are there, I have not seen any issues when I 1st, reverted all templates, then have it as a child style to my main style. Just keep the custom stuff, like custom common templates, main css and style vars, Everyone on the inside, can be set to child linking off your main. This way should you use alot of plugins, mods etc, it will all update without having to set them all up. =)

Some of my users and myself asked this..can you make this so it has a Blueish or purpleish color instead of gold? We LIKE the whole layout, but am looking for one in a coolish color vs gold. =)

OK I will rephrase ......I did upload this style, had to ignore........went to that
style and many things were not in correct locations or didn't work.....Yes I'm a greenhorn to vB, but I have installed a few styles and many hacks. This is the only one I have had any problem with...Any help would be great....

If I remember correctly, there was a big difference in the phrases and config for 3.5.4 which required the full upgrade of 3.5.4 to use.

No I learned the hard way.. one time I went to install the AWS system... messed EVERYTHING up on my AdminCP, kept getting database issues etc.. messed up and just restored a 3.5.4 AdminCP folder to FTP.. made a mess of MORE things. Till I learned that OOPS.. 3.5.4 had some changes in there that was a required upgrade install to fix things, meaning before that was outdated stuff.

I need to just upgrade to 3.6 and be done........I have been loading way to much on my site.

I think Ill goto 3.6.0 after the year gets closer to running out and everyone moved all the good well known plugins over and show its stable, Otherwise, 3.5.4 is nice and mods and plugins work well.
