 * Thanks for the suggestions.
    But google doesnt seem to help here as the tutorials
   are either very basic or stuff i cant even understand. I’ve read the wordpress
   codex, i’m kinda using that to get a idea. What would you say about using theme
   [frameworks](http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Frameworks)? also if frameworks
   are good way to get started dropin a newbie friendly framework 🙂

 * Yes, using theme frameworks would be a good start for you in understanding how
   themes should be constructed. 🙂
