= Step by Step of Making a Theme =
Creating a theme is easy . It's mostly one css file a couple of background images. That will get you going quickly. You can later add a lot more refinements to it. The simplest way to start is by forking an existing "base" theme:

* To change the display name of your theme to match that of the directory, edit the settings in
morning-sunshine-1.0/init.rb
* At this point the theme should be visible and selectable in <nowiki>http://hda/setup?tab=themes</nowiki>
* The most important file in the theme is the CSS file, which contains the styling for the theme. The file is located in
style.css
