Henry,
One thing to note, though, is that 8 does change the appearance and
rendering of fonts, so if you are using font icons, you may encounter some
issues.  You can set the theme of your project stacks in 8 to "legacy", but
that does not necessarily fix every little thing.  On projects that I have
moved to 8, I have had to do some tweaking to get things looking the way I
wanted them to, originally.

On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
