@Kistlak
I can't Edit any English Words.

@Chanux designed some themes for the add-ons and speaks your language, seems like he could provide you help.

see your last question - via localization and definitions.

UnderDog & peregrine - Ok , Thank U Bro !!

But , still i can't find anything to edit my Theme called Default theme.

U know about it ??

after you make a copy of the themes/default to themes/MyNewTheme.

change the about.php

    $ThemeInfo['default'] = array(
       'Name' => 'Vanilla',
       'Description' => "The default theme for Vanilla.",

to the name of your theme and folder.

e.g. if your new theme is in folder themes/MyNewTheme

change the about.php to

    $ThemeInfo['MyNewTheme'] = array(
       'Name' => 'My New Theme',
       'Description' => "This is my new theme",

you can copy the /design folder and /views folder from themes/EmbedFriendly (or from other themes in the add-ons section). They will give you a base to work from.

you can then modify

themes/MyNewTheme/views/default.master.tpl

and then modify css in

themes/MyNewTheme/design/custom.css

you can add elements you need that don't have "rules" by identfying the elements via firebug and add them or modify them in custom.css.

you can also make a new favicon.png if you desire via an image or favicon editor (available on web).

tutorial category perhaps @underdog.
