You will also need clockworkmod recovery to easily flash themes onto your phone.

Take a look at this thread:

You'll basically need to flash a kernal or rom that includes CWM through the program, ODIN. After that, you can just copy the themes onto your internal SD card and install the theme via CWM menu, making sure that the phone and your rom are compatible.

+1 and the CWM kernels have a root option so its just going intoo the recovery menu selecting root and installing su+busybox and wola a rooted phone.
