the way i did the JACxROM 1.3 a while back was by grabbing a theme template by cyanogen and looking at what files it contained .. then I grabbed the rom and deleted all the files that werent necessary and voila you have a template

OK!,this is what I was going to try right now. Thanks, for your help

no problem

I tried but I got this message when I tried to flash it.
failure at line 5: run_program backuptool.sh backup
Any tip?

have to use the meta folder from a theme zip, look at the update script, they carry out all kinds of actions on rom updates

OK, thanks , I still dont have much idea about it but now I can start looking for much info, thanks!

oh wow i completely forgot to mention that ... heres a generic one that should work for all themes ... so in your theme.zip you should have an app folder and a framework folder since those are the folders that the script will copy over
