Default Re: Creating a new theme

OK, now I see that the dashboard is not dynamically picking up the skin -> directories.

1. I backed up the fashion_mosaic_pink theme folder.
2. I opened altskin.ini in the original and changed the color in parenthesis to red
3. I uploaded the file.
4. The new name did not show in the theme dropdown list in the Dashboard.

Thinking to my Drupal experience, I hunted around for a way to clear a cache. I found it under Tools -> Maintenance. I think that additional explanations on that page would be helpful. I took a guess hoping that I wasn't going to break anything. Of course, regular database backups do help alleviate some of those fears!
