"flashing a ROM" means replacing the stock operating system that came with the phone with a custom one.
It can always be totally undone by flashing the stock ROM back on the phone.
flashing a custom ROM has many advantages such as putting Sense on a phone that didn't come with it or putting AOSP (stock android like the Nexus phones) on HTC devices that ship with Sense.
If you follow directions you're usually safe doing it.

If you want to learn about installing roms read "Beginners GUIDE:Rooting a HTC Dream(T-Mobile G1) and Installing CYANOGENMOD 6 (FROYO)"

As you already have an old Cyanogen rom, your phone is already rooted, so you can skip the 1st part of the guide (you may want to read it anyway for a better understanding of what was already done on your device).
Once you select the rom you want to flash, you can post your questions on installing that rom in that rom's thread.
Happy flashing!

Usually NOT (changing your rom doesn't unroot your phone).... and this is the development section! Next time post in the question and answer section and we're all happy.

My friend has also a desire S but his android soft is bugging al the time.
Can i take an image (CWM) of my desire s , which is working fine ,and flash it into his ?
Or do i have to flash a new ROM into his phone ?
It's rooted and S-Off.
Grts
it may be dangerous to install your rom to his phone.
there are pre rooted stock roms on the forum, it is better to install them.
Yep your backup will have all your google account info. Could cause all kinds of conflicts running on two phones.

If you are noob, then you do not need custom rom. install stock
prerooted firmware is preinstalled with root

You can install that rom, but you'll need to learn a little bit about android, bootloader and so. You'll have to boot to the recovery and flash your current system with that one. Make a nandroid backup first. On Nexus S forum you'll have guides about this

Hi everyone!
I just have one question, is it possible to reinstall the offcial HTC Sense ROM for my HTC One X?
The thing is that last month I almost brick my HOX, you guys helped me to recover it, but I did not get any back up for the original ROM, can I reinstall it? Cuz I've been looking for the official ROM online without result. Mine is EVITA.
I'd appreciate your answers!
Thanks!
Firstly, this should have been posted in the q&a section. I'll ask for it to be moved.
You can find stock ROMs in the Android Development section.
If you want to go fully stock (ROM and recovery, no root) you can run an RUU.
