RE: Themes, coding the site, and pages
 
Question 3.. there is a "blank.php" in your files.. use that to create more. For help on changing HTML & CSS for the themes.. research & learn http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp & http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp you should learn at least enough of both to ask specific questions.. You need to show the desire to learn & try if you are wanting aid & those tuts help alot :)

Question 1: I have the pictures I want made for the themes but I don't know how to create the theme...
I tried to substitute my "theme" for the default pictures in the default theme but that didn't work completely.
So exactly in simple terms (because I have no idea what I'm doing) how to you make the themes? And is there a way for you to have multiple themes and your users can select which theme they want?

Question 2: Also, is there a way to get into the coding of the site?
For example, If I wanted to change what it said on the Adopt page could I do that?

Question 3: And for the final question...how do you make new pages?
I can create them but they don't appear.
I enter the values shown (no idea what the page url is though) and nothing happens. I'm assuming I'm missing the page url page...
1: I can't really explain how to do this, I normally sub the default. I can make it for you though if you send me the images you want. For an example of my latest theme:
http://pokepets.hostoi.com/index.php

2: Yes. The place where you uploaded all the FTP files. Go into there and you can edit the text. To edit things like the text in adopt.php, go to lang ==> lang.php

3: The page URL is the extension from your site. So if you say the extension is "test", then your URL to actually view the page will be "http://yourwebsite.com/pages.php?page=test"
That is probably why it won't appear.

RE: Themes, coding the site, and pages
 
Thank you, both of you!

@Seapyramid-I'm reading up on those tutorials now.
They're definitely a lot better than the tutorials I found. XD

@Ashje-If I can't get the theme working I'll send you the pictures. I just want to see if I can try it first. :D

Good Luck & Glad those help:) I still refer to that site often, especially on the PHP & MYSQL as I learn more they help me to do new things. Glad you are finding them useful too! :)

RE: Themes, coding the site, and pages
 
I'm getting everything except for the themes. It just changes the site to my code... :S
Does it have to be put in the "/templates/default/images" folder? Because I made a separate folder for it so it was easy to keep track of.
EDIT: Also is there a way to delete themes? I have two with the same name and neither of them work. XD
EDIT2: I guess posting the code will help...
I edited the theme from the default since I probably would have screwed it up if I hadn't and I used the same size pictures (except for the background) as the default theme. I also saved the files as the same names as the default theme because originally I was trying to substitute them (which didn't work).

Code:

I believe this is because I moved the files.

This is what I usually get which is my entire code in one massive paragraph...
