At the end of the theme chooser, there's a "Edit theme list" (in beta 16 or something and ahead I think). From there you can either copy another theme, or you can add a new one. The new one will have some scopes already defined, but without any colour or such. Then, you just go through the scopes and and set them, from within the preference window. This will have immediate effect on the file you view at the moment. You can also at any time hit shift+control+p in your syntax file to see what scopes a certain item has, then just add those scopes in the theme editor and colour them up! Good enough? Be sure to send in your results, themes seem to be the latest buzz now :)

Hi Everyone
How do you go about creating your themes?
Do you start from another theme? with a clean slate? Do you do it editing a plist file or just use the built-in editor? How do you preview your results, what source code you find best to use?
I'm looking to craft a theme or two and would like to know how the others are doing it.
