Yeap,

i'm a TOTAL Newbie to this.
ironically, Buddyzone, Buddypress, wordpress, WordpressMU, DZOIC Handshakes, DZOIC Cliphouse, Socialengine are all sites i've learned to use. and this one, well, this one. Just confuses me in many aspects.

Okay,

We'll im thinking of making this "Emo Website" similar to myspace or facebook, heck anything really (awesome profiles tho)
but i really do not understand this system, i am so confused.

I want to use the "Social Networking Dream" theme but i suck at changing the header and footer colors so it looks crappy,
can anyone help me?

im thinking of just getting the theme ready, profiles & group features.
the rest i think i could manage.

Any Help? D:

A couple of suggestions

You could try using an installation profile like Drupal Commons. It is ready to handle things like groups and custom profiles.
For the theming part, you can use Firebug - to find which css you need to change to get the desired results.
