I have just upgraded wordpress (automatically via the dashboard) and it has overwritten my theme.
The theme was a custom design i was building so i was editing the "default" theme.
Is there anyway of getting the old files back?

Why would an upgrade of wordpress (not a new install) need to add new theme files anyway?
As a suggestion it may be worth putting a warning on the dashbord upgrade page. I have just lost about a weeks worth of work...

Why wouldn't you have a local copy?

Have been designing/developing for 1-2 years now but never had anything like this happen. Maybe i should backup more often...
