Well for one, forums like zeta and invision based forums as well as jcink forums use CSS. The first thing you'd want to do if you want to start from scratch is learning CSS

http://www.echoecho.com/css.htm
http://www.csstutorial.net/
http://css-tricks.com/13317-little-css-stuff-newcomers-get-confused-about/

if you're not interested in building your own from scratch, you can play off others skins and manipulate them to fit your own. However you're going to be limited when it comes to exactly what you can do with it if you want something completely different than what the original maker had written. This would mean that you would have to erase and completely re-write entire chunks of the skin.

Here are some other sites.

http://www.pixel2life.com/forums/index.php?/topic/31216-how-to-make-invision-power-board-skins/

For more sites on CSS or how to make skins for ipb type boards like zeta/invision/jcink, google is your friend and will take you anywhere you want it to.
