Like the title says, I'm going to be upgrading from 6.5.5 to 7.5.8 and I want to be able to exactly replicate the look of my site, but also still offer users the newer looks.

I'm assuming that this will require playing with the .tpl files.

My question is simply: Are there any directions or tutorials on creating styles that use a different set of templates while allowing others to use the default templates?
e.g. How do I set up Style 'Foo' to use Templates in the 'Foo' directory while users using Style 'Bar' still use the stock Templates in the 'default' folder?


Secondly, and I'm guessing the answer is 'Yes' to this, will I need to recreate ALL of the .tpl files?



Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long
