(Request) Learning to theme

I want to contribute to xda I have many ideas just no experience. Only thing I know how to do so far is use photoshop and illustrator. I have a lot of experience with both. I have a great idea of a rom I wan't to make but making roms shouldn't 'bee where to start with no experience. So I'm looking for help with learning to theme apps, roms, launchers, or possibly creating mods. I would be more than happy to donate for your help. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Grab Ninja Morph from the market and pull your framework. You can always start by modding your icons and such.

To mod my icons would I have to extract the app png then edit in a program like photoshop or gimp then overwrite the old png with the one I edited?

an APK is another name for application that you download from the market (or other sources) and install on your phone. Here is a link that explains this application. Note - you must be rooted to use it on your phone.

Here's one from the MT3G forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916602

Here are the two that I had on my computer...I just made them flashable to CM for you. One black, one white, both different.
The white one's file size considerably larger than the black one, but looks better.
The black one is pretty much the same as the one in the link above, excepts it is on a black background and says "HTC".
Nandroid first just in case, then flash from recovery.

I tried both and decided on the black one. Thanks ranger!

So is there any way to get music working with the black one?

Did you remove the words in front of pc36img and place it on root of your sd boot into bootloader? It's not flashable.

what do you mean messed up. did you remove (kewlklass) leaving just PC36IMG.zip, you put that on your sdcard, power down phone , press and hold power and volume down, let bootloader find the file press volume up for update and then again for reboot

trying to push SystemUI.apk with no luck! HELP!

hey guys, im trying to edit a systemui.apk file in Eaglesblood 1.8 rom! I extract the file (i have a mac) and alter the changes, but how do i get it back to correct apk format?? everytime i try and rename the extension, that doesnt work! are there any programs that will do this the correct way? basically, im trying to go from .zip to .apk, but having no luck!
I have root explorer and a mac, just a heads up!

Wish I could help you. Didn't know you could edit an apk that way. I guess someone smarter than I will come along and answer your question. Interesting.

What were trying to do is gather every themer, tester, and developer, or person who is seriously interested in doing so. It's ultimately your choice but it would help us gather info regarding who's in or who's out.

I don't mind testing, as long as it's not bootloaders or something that'll completely **** my phone over. ^^
I'll probably start dev'ing once I learn though, I've always wanted to do something like that.
