rughooker Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 I have been wandering around the contributions area trying to pick out a set of buttons. Many of the links in the contributions--if they have one--do not work. Am I overlooking a procedure for preview, or do I need to continue to download, look and delete? I know everyone has different needs, but how do I know what the must-have contributions are? Are they rated in any way by users? All I see are the latest ones. Where are the tried and true? As a new user, I don't want to be the first to try something. I have been looking at STS. How do I know what the latest version is? Is the Basic Design Pack better? What is the difference? Should I always download the latest entry? Sorry for the quick fire questions. I can figure out most things, but this has me bewildered. Right now I can easily switch back to initial install files so my risk is low. I have not loaded any products yet. Still working on the overall look. Download and try seems dangerous on a live store, especially something so simple as a color change on the buttons. I don't mind carefully testing the perfect color of button. I just don't want to backup and jump through loops just to see what the buttons look like. Quote

rughooker Posted March 31, 2008 Author Posted March 31, 2008 Thanks. The method seemed involved but it was all I could figure out. I will forge on. Quote
Jack_mcs Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Asking in the support thread for a particular contribution is probably the best way to find out which package to download for that contribution.
