 * Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I even tried this but I followed instructions for
   making post thumnails and editing my function php. As soon as I clicked update
   I got this error message:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home1/buffalq9/public_html/birdhammer/
   wp-content/themes/modularity-lite/functions.php on line 229
 * I can’t login to my dashboard and I don’t know how to get it all back.
    I hope
   some one can help me, I am freakin’. My site is birdhammer.com, I use modularity
   lite theme. I hate being a moron! Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

 * Using ftp or logging into your hosted account, rename go to wp-content/themes/
   and rename modularity-lite. That will force wp to open with the default theme
   and you will then be able to get into the back-end.

 * Oh Geez thanks Mr. Kmessinger! I saw your response right soon after you posted
   it but I had to figure out how to use the ftp action.
    You’re a champ! I was 
   able to log into the dashboard and reinstalled my theme and vwalla! If I could…
   I would buy you a cwasant! Thanks a bunch! Birdhammer
