Root reverting back

[cashmere_cat]

I played around on the UOT kitchen today, and have a zip file to flash to modify a few things.
If it turns out I don't like the changes, how can I revert back to where things are at this moment?
Would I do a nandroid restore, or just the files that changed?

Just do a nandroid backup before you flash anything and then then restore if you wish to go back to how the phone was.

As a general rule, before you flash ANYTHING make a backup, just in case.

Turns out that the boot animation part didnt 'take' when I flashed it to my phone :-(
Does this happen frequently, that parts work, others dont? Would re-flashing the same file be of any use, or not bother, and just go back to UOT and start over?
Oh, and I assume I dont need to restore in between each new flash?
TIA

Hi, i'm not really sure how the kitchen works, but find a boot animation over in xda you like and place it in data/local, see if that works.
