 * Hi!
 * I made modifications to the CSS (and to some .php files) to make colors match
   my website and add functionalities and I would like to know if, when an update
   comes out, every file will be reset, or new things are just going to be added
   without removing what I did?
 * By the way, your template is wonderful! 🙂

 * If you have made a child theme you will not lose any of those modifications.

 * I didn’t made a child theme, but thanks for the tip! I’m gonna do this tomorrow.
 * Also, will the child theme have the new functionalities in case of an update?
 * Thanks again!

 * Yes. [Child themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) inherit from Parent
   themes.
