Saving Skins (Reformat)
« on: January 09, 2005, 04:45:52 AM »
I'm about to reformat my computer. My question is, is there any way to save the skins from AH to a CD so that after I reformat, I do not have to leave my computer turned on for a week to download all the skins again? Im guessing it's the cache or something like that. Thanks in advance.

You don't have a "skins" folder???
It's been said we have three brains, one cobbled on top of the next. The stem is first, the reptilian brain; then the mammalian cerebellum; finally the over developed cerebral cortex.  They don't work together in awfully good harmony - hence ax murders, mobs, and socialism.

Skins are in the skins folder, right now its 178 meg i think.  just burn the fold or files to a CDR disk, when u reinstall AH, just copy if from the CD back into AH dir.

Hmmm when you copy em back make sure they don't say "read only".  Sometimes they're changed to read only on a cd and stay that way when you copy em to the HD.

Check em after you've copied em over to the HD and change em to normal files if the do.
