If you have windows, it should be pretty easy for you to just unzip the sip file, replace the images you want to change (located in the theme/images and theme/struct_images directories in the folder), preview in your web browser (double click on the html file you want). Once you get everything you want to look good then you just zip the file back up with your new files in it and send it away. For stosh then, once he gets the zip all he has to do is unzip it and copy the theme directory to the right place on the webserver and he's done.
if you have a mac or linux there is also a tar file available for download in theThe Themebuilder post. You just uncompress, edit, recompress and PM me and I can convert it to a zip for you. Also, if you want help with CSS feel free to PM me, and probably others in this thread and we can help you create the css you need to do what you want.
How to Use the ThemeBuilder:
1. Decompress / unzip
2. replace images in theme/images and theme/struct_images directories with those specific for your theme. Note: don't change the file name or type or you will have to edit the css file to make it work.
3. (optional) modify the css file to make your theme better*
4. preview in browser, return to step 2 if necessary
5. compress / zip and email to stosh
*if you don't know how to edit CSS I and others do and at least I, and probably others, are willing to help you write CSS for your theme.
One final note - If you need a program to zip / unzip files I recommend 7-Zip (it's free and easy to use)
