Ok, did that just as you described it. Now on re-starting the server it 
produces this message:
The alias directive in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/modecideas.com at line 
33 will probably never match because it overlaps an earlier alias.
A similar message appears for line 23.

I got rid of the line 33 error by prefixing it with a hash #. Now it is 
saying "line 23 *direct to a non URL" The line is below:
Redirect permanent /images "http://modecideas.com/imgs"

I can't see a problem with it, but for every correction comes a new error??
