 * Just Google it. First link that came up on my search: [http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-create-a-wordpress-theme-from-scratch/](http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-create-a-wordpress-theme-from-scratch/)

 * Why does everyone keep replying with “Google it”. I am sure the user has already
   done that, and they obviously did not find what they wanted. I am still getting
   started on this myself, so far I have just done super customization to existing
   themes (using CSS, some php code, lots of plugins, etc). I am now starting from
   the ground up though.

 * perfect – then you might be able to recommend resources that you have used recently.
 * that, at least, would be a productive contribution to the topic.

 * One of the best I found was the starter [http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development](http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development)
 * I am trying to be productive, sorry.
 * Really the best way is to get your hands dirty. I just created a side blog (hidden
   in a different subdomain I made), and just played around. Definitely create a
   backup before you get into it though, you will find messing with the php can 
   really kill a site quickly. I just constantly backup and cut/paste. That is how
   I learned html, and that is how I am learning CMS so far. Following directions
   only works for so long, to really get into it you have to start playing with 
   it.
