thanks for your reply. I usaully use many programs like photoshop, notepad++, dreamweaver, xamp, Illustrator and etc and I am a normall user to use them. I always thought that there is certain programs than developers use theme to create wordpress themes. But i understand that web developers, create themes with coding and many softwares.

Hi, If you r familiar with php coding i suggest that you go a head and learn some theme frameworks like : - whiteboard, - skeleton (my favorite) - Twenty Eleven !!! - ... and you surly need a options framework too, i’m actually testing : - sy4mil-Options-Framework

and you need to be pation and you need a lot of time time and time GOOD LUCK
