when I change the base.css of a theme do I have to set the dev mode to true so the changes take effect?

Editing the file and then re-uploading (FTP) - yes
Editing css from Admin Page - no

Yes. Advised in all cases.

Yeah, I've had problems before by not enabling Dev mode when changing CSS - Probably worth doing in both cases.

dev mode is slow so I just make the same change in the base theme css file and the static base theme css. Much faster. I have a copy of both original css files for backup.
