How To Create WordPress Themes From Scratch
Even though my current design is fairly new, I've never been very happy with it. As a result, I recently started the process of designing a new WordPress Theme from scratch, and was planning on blogging about my experience.
While researching WordPress Theme tags and functions, I came accross a site called ThemeTation. Launched on June 5th, 2008 by Kai Loon, it is a well designed site that includes a WordPress related Weblog as well as free WordPress Themes (SuperFresh and Blue Blog).
What really caught my attention was the very informative series Kai Loon put together on creating a WordPress Theme from scratch. If you've ever considered taking on that challenge or are just interested in how WordPress Themes work, I suggest you take a look:
Part 1 - Structuring, Designing in Photoshop
Part 3a - WordPress Implementation
Part 3b - WordPress Implementation cont.
Thanks Kai Loon!

Wow - that's a LOT of helpful information. I've always wondered how designers make new themes. Now I'll try to digest/comprehend all that info and give it a go myself.
Thanks again,
Phil
