How do I design a new skin while keeping the current skin in tact?

Title self-explanatory.

I'm planning to create a new site (using a new domain) and I would like to use the same DBtech mods and create a new design. How do I make a new skin that only the Staff members have access to and change while the original skin (that my members use) stays in tact.

I'm hoping to change the logo and many other designs and I'm just hoping I don't mess anything up.

Regards,
 
Do you mean you just want the new design/skin to allow access to features that you don't want your regular users to have access to?

It'd be easier setting it up so that your users have no permissions for the new features, while letting your staff/team have access. You can add a new style in, and then make it so that your regular users can't change the style, while your staff/team can do.

Well, what I mean is if there was a way to make a copy of the original and only do design changes to the COPY. I guess I don't need the mods to be available on the COPY.
 
Add a child style to your main style, and implement the other changes I suggested, and you should have what you want.
 
lol. Simplest way, just make the style you're working on not available to others, except administrators of course..
