 * Hello all, I’d like to design a custom theme, but I have no experience coding
   in PHP, but I’d like to make a theme with flash animations for some buttons I’d
   like to put on my template. For Example I’d have a Header then a buttons bar 
   such as topics/categories and or archives which will open up a new page which
   will list the topics/categories and archives respectively. My main question is,
   how hard would it be to make this template/theme workable and possible for someone
   who has no experience whatsoever in PHP. Or is it possible to edit a current 
   theme without coding, but in DreamWeaver.

 * _but in DreamWeaver._
    Nope! Don’t use it.
 * It is not as much PHP knowledge that is required but a good working knowledge
   in (X)HTML and CSS.
