Hi....First of all let me say I am not an expert in tweaking android, but regarding bootanimation I searched and got some little knowledge.....
The boot animation is made using a serious of images. I have tried it using .png files and .jpeg file. Both were ok.
What you have to do is, you must make the animation in two series of pictures. The first part must be put in a folder and the second part (The part which will be looped till the phone starts up) must be in another folder. Next you must make a new text file with the name "desc.txt" and with the following content:
320 320 24
p 1 0 part1
p 0 0 part2
First line indicates that the pictures are of 320 X 320 pix size and the animation must be done in a speed of 24 fps.
Second line indicates that the pictures in the first folder ("part1" is the name for the folder in which the pictures for the first part of animation is kept) must be looped ones (The one after p is given for that).
In the third line, in the place of "one" a "zero" is given so the pictures in the second folder will be looped infinite times (till phone starts). Here part2 is the name for the second folder.
Now you have two folders with pictures for the animation and a text file. Now add these three to a zip file with the name bootanimation.zip. while making the file make sure that the compression method is selected to store only.
Now copy this zip file to system/media/
Reboot and enjoy.....Hope it will work!!!!! My animation worked!!!!
I have attached a sample file for your reference.....
All the best.....

Regarding rom cooking...Its not a simple process to make a line by line guide....I am also searching for the same from day 1......I have searched a lot and obtained very few things regarding rom cooking....Not even enough to cook a new rom....
What I have done is installed virtual machine, installed htc kitchen, selected rom made by some other guys, used it as a source rom for the kitchen and just added a few new applications to the rom, then repacked it and installed it....
for these things you can follow this link..." http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246 "
Also tried change some other features of the rom but didn't succeed....
Anyway from the search what I understood is that using kitchens the level to which you can edit a rom is very less.....you must follow the procedures given in this link " http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html " (it is an ocean) to install a development platform, other software required, and finally develop new roms...some knowledge regarding java and xml is also needed to do the task... I have tried my turn in that site but i reached no were.....still trying to get something....
Anyway hope you will understand something....all the best!!!!!
