How can I create Custom Themes/skins for TP2?

Hey All,
I want to start creating some themes for the TP2, I have no experience in doing so and would like to share my work with the community. I do lots of web design/development so I figured why not customize my phone?
Anyways I did some searching around, and found a couple threads for customizing taskbar icons and what not...but how can I create a complete theme with the main tabs, start, menu, buttons....?
If someone could help me find a few threads its would be much appreciated. I plan on putting together a series of themes to share with everyone.
thanks in advance

I have no idea, but I am glad to hear that you want to learn to build some ROMs for us.
Good luck!
Thanks for the support. I just hope a rom developer would provide me the answers I need soon

Read, read, and read some more. Then read again. The info is around just scattered all over the internet. cynagon has a good post about it in the android development section. I would start with going there
First of all, I would recommend buying a book that teaches Java development, there are several available from Amazon (I recommend the Lewis & Loftus 6th edition, it's the one used in my Intro CS classes). Once you have a decent understanding of that, you can go to developer(dot)android(dot)com/sdk/installing(dot)html (sorry, can't post links as a new user) to get set up with the Android SDK and linking it with Eclipse. At the very bottom of that page, they have some guides to starting programming, like a "Hello World" application. Also, I read that Samsung recently came out with a developer's section somewhere on their site, which has some tips for beginning programmers. Finally, take apart some .apks, and try and understand some of what's going on inside them, and look at the sample projects included in the Android SDK.
Best of luck, and welcome to the other side of the community.
If you're old enough, I suggest looking online for nearby classes where they can teach you directly so you can fully understand it all.
Otherwise, feel free to take some of the other's advice, and figure it out by reading =P
Nevertheless, welcome to Development.
There's a thread somewhere specifically for it... brb digging...

learn about linux.
themes and most ui changes are java - download a rom, unzip it, and check out /system/framework or /system/app
you can open .jar files by changing .jar to .zip and extracting them
Thanks for all the advice you guys, umm I'ma start off by learning how to theme then work my way up trying to understand my phone a lot more than I do now

Suggestion: Add a "whats special about this ROM" section

Hi Fellow XDA followers.
I just wanted to share a thought that I had and wanted everyone's input. Recently with all the new Sense 3.0 ROMs being developed and pushed out on the web, I suspect that things are starting to get a little confusing.
Believe me, I have had my fair share of experiences in trying all the newest roms due to my phone not being able to load the Synergy and Synergy-Kingdom roms, that most of them are starting to look SOO similar that I am getting confused on which ones do what.
Therefore, what do you all think about requesting the ROM developers or thread starters to include a section something like "What different", "What special" about "this" rom. This section should be easy to read, not technical, and tell the potential user/downloader what to expect in this rom. For Example, some notes could include:
Includes God Mode
New screen transitions
Transparent Settings Screens
etc.
What do you guys think?

[Q] Subforum in Desire Android Development

Maybe my question sounds stupid but you should consider to create subforums where the name of subforum would be for example MildWild and only that user would be able to create threads since he is one of those who creates and supports more than 1 ROM development line.. im sure there are more developers like this who should have this kind of support... Thanks for reading this far
While this idea may work small scale with a handful of users & developers, scale that up to XDA size and its unworkable. Creating, administering & moderating a forum for just one developer would not work.
Good idea in concept, but sadly it wouldn't work here.
