Root Quick question before I shabby up...

So I am sorry if this is a repost, but I am still pretty noobish when it comes to searching forums. I checked the stickies and couldn't really find out what I needed to know.

I just installed CWM and am about to flash Shabbymod, but before I do so I read that it was best to do a wipe before flashing. If I choose wipe data/factory reset in CWM it won't remove CWM itself, will it?(I know this is probably a total noob question too, but I AM a total noob :P)

No it wont, but before you do that use the backup feature to make a back up of your phone the way it is right now, that way if you make a mistake, ie end up bricking your phone you could just boot back into cwm and restore your backup.

Thanks a bunch, I had already made the backup which is my main reason for worry. I figured what was the point of making it if it was just going to be removed?
 
Well, I went from a stock rooted phone when I started this morning to almost everything I wanted it to be :P Now running Shabbymod with bits and pieces from multiple themes to create my favorite setup. My thanks go out to everyone that made this possible, will be donating soon enough.
