looking for a way to customize the theme/create a new theme for a rom. been searching the forums, google, and have yet to find a simple tutorial explaining at least the basics on how to get this done. anyone know where i can go to started on this?
well a basic theme is made up of 2 kinds of modifications.
1- changes to the images in the framework-res.apk, systemui.apk, and the com.htc.resource.apk
2- changes to .xml files withing those .apk files.
An easy place to start would be getting a program like photoshop, gimp, or paint.net and making changes to the images within those .apk. then seeing the changes on your device by pushing the edited framework back onto your phone.

and yea, thats basically what you do. (it tends to be time consuming)
.xml's are mostly for text colors.
