Need some sort of confirmation button after pressing 'delete'
Sunday, September 1, 2002 by UBoB | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Just recently I was updating a wallpaper and accidently pressed the 'delete' button. Boom, gone!
No confirmation of deletion, just gone.
Maybe a secondary confirmation screen would be a good idea for just such mistakes.
I've uploaded the file again, but it will now appear as a new wall when in reality it is just an updated, 'old' one. Oh well!

Motion - I did that recently with one of my NextStart Themes.
I e-mailed T-Man and he recovered my Theme without any loss to rating or d/l's

It's just a simple little wall I made a while ago to go with my Indigo WB skin. I only got a few hundred downloads, so I'm not too concerned. 
Mostly, I posted this thread to see if a confirmation screen was a possiblility in the future. It would reduce these kind of mistakes (I'm a bit reckless with the mouse sometimes )
and it would probably reduce T-Man's work a bit.
Like I said, not a big deal. Won't really have any effect on my download totals in the long run. Not that I care about that stuff anyways.

A confirmation box or screen would be nice. I think there should be a suggestion box on this site.

I'll make sure this suggestion is in the Janitor's In-tray for Monday morning...
