Introduction to android themes and styles part I

This is my first technical blog post and somebody may wonder why I have chosen such an advanced topic… well I like to write about things as I encounter them, and what I am working on currently is themes and styles. I will be slotting in posts to cover the basics as time allows.

Please note that in this post I use eclipse indigo 3.7 for J2EE, if your environment for android development is not yet set in anyway, you may want to deal with that first and then return.
