If You want to make a Wordpress theme , then you can also do it very easily just by looking into some of the older themes available around . Ok if you don’t want to look around then let me tell you something about the Wordpress themes .
Wordpress themes or templates are a collection of images and some files . I am taking the example of the classic theme provided by Wordpress itself . It has several files which are namely

1. comments.php
2. comments-popup.php
3. footer.php
4. functions.php
5. header.php
6. index.php
7. sidebar.php
8. style.css

Now this is the case is with most of the themes but when somebody makes a theme he/she increases the no of files in the folder and then calls them in the proper files when needed.

As I said previously, a Wordpress theme is a collection of template files. Those files tell Wordpress and web browsers how, when and where to present your blog’s data to your blog visitor. Here are the two template files you’ll find in all Wordpress themes:

• Main Index Template (index.php) - this is the “master template” for your Wordpress site/blog. It contains all the code necessary to pull your blog’s data from the database and present it to your blog visitor in the form of a web page.
• Stylesheet (styles.css) - CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet. The stylesheet works alongside your Main Index Template (and other template files) to help determine the look and feel of your blog, as well as the general page layout of your blog’s pages.

Wordpress is a working engine which makes use of CSS and database in full so that you may be having the beautiful theme of its kind.

More Technical Details i.e. about designing the template files or the inside look in the files of Wordpress themes in next post about Wordpress Themes. It may be possible that most of you can make your own Wordpress theme after reading the Article which i am going to give you in next few days.
