Style.css still overwriting since 1.0.2

Please refer back to this issue:showthread.php?t=25557&highlight=style.css

style.css is a very common practice for web designers. Please rename your extension files differently so that they do not overwrite common files. It wouldn't be that hard for you to preface all your files with WA.

This is still an issue with DesignExtender 1.1.1

Thanks,
Jared

Oh yeah, I forgot that you throw the images into the root "images" folder and overwrite the very common logo.php file. Please fix ASAP.

I have forwarded this to our development team.

in the mean time, the best strategy is to add CMS to the site first, that way it wont be able to over write anything.

That's a good idea. It's not a huge thing but I haven't used PCMS for awhile and forgot all about this issue until I viewed a site after implementing it and was surprised that the css was wiped out. I had a bad flashback. I was annoyed it wasn't fixed by now. But I'm over it. No big deal since there's a workaround. Thanks for your reply.
