title pretty much says it all - where can I download the software to make my own theme (or try..I have no idea how hard that is )

Give me a R
Give me a T
Give me a F
Give me a M.

What does that spell?

Heh heh, my Psych teacher always says something like that to tell us to read the text book. RTDT = Read The Dam Text

Anyway, I just got into this like two days ago, so I don't know squat either, but I do know that there is no software that is directly related to making themes. It's just straight text editing, downloading some files (e.g. modules), and some graphics work with something like psp.

Am I right? If I'm wrong then, hey, I gave it a shot, now correct me.

there is something that's called notepad which is pretty much all the software you need. along with mspaint you can make any sort of theme.

of course, more advanced text-editors and image-apps might make things easier... but it's up to you.

LOL @ Egonz
I'm still trying to figure out how you did your clock background - whatever I do in PSP, it never looks like the original.

that's because i didn't draw it in psp. the clock was made in the good old corel photopaint days. :P
