Written by Jean Gosselin
This document presents an illustrated step-by-step tutorial on making a new theme.

This tutorial was written for version 8, so specific CSS changes are no longer accurate. It therefore cannot be followed exactly anymore.
However it is still very useful to see the exact steps taken to make a theme, start to finish.
