awesome! thanks for the help on this. Ya i am actually doing my development
of the themes on a cloned VM of my prod system, but i have disabled the
polling and stuff. that way it mirrors the same setups. for the default theme
i have tared and ziped a backup copy of the dir. another problem i am
experincing on my prod system is, after modified the messages number area,
when ever it lists the messages it pauses and gives the [y], [n], [continue],
message and the screen will only populate the messages once i type in one of
those. i dont suppose there is something that can get around that diplay code
wise is there? 

oh by the way, i am saving all the echos of the advice i am getting on this
and am going to use if for my documentation, i was going to give credit to
y'all for helping me with this. I eventually would like to do a short video
series on this for everyone.

Thanks
