Dylans tip for making feeds viewable was spot-on so I added a few more feeds successfully. In the process of doing that I have somehow locked myself out of administer settings?!? When I login it treats me as any other user and I dont see the admin menu set. Oh well, I have to go to work anyway! Any tips to give me back my power of admin would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, TS

Hopefully you have DB access
You'll need to be able to access the permissions page. which in d6 is /admin/user/permissions. You'll need access to your database, once in, export it so if the whole thing goes nuclear, you have a backup. Then execute this SQL statement:
UPDATEpermissionSETperm= 'administer permissions, administer users' WHERErid= 4The statement gives anyone with the 4th role access to /admin/user/permissions and /admin/user/user. Check and see if you can access /admin/user/permissions, if not decrease or increase the number. Make note that rid 0 is anonymous users so avoid that if the site's in production.
