I've heard a lot about Views Theme Wizard, but where to download it?

Is it the same as Views UI ?

No, Views UI is the tool you use to create Views.

Edit a view, under 'Basic Information', scan down for 'Theme' and click on 'information', click one of the linked template names.

All that does for me is display the PHP code for the theme. Am I missing something?

There is no theme wizard for d6. As nevets mentioned, the applicable templates are listed in the "Theme: information" link. You can then use the default views tpl.php files to start and modify as required. Some good info on how to theme views in d6 is included in views advanced help (at help/views/analyze-theme).

Notice the information that shows when you click 'Information' each bullet item starts with a descriptor like "Display output", click that (its a link) and see what you get (the wizard is simply hiding).

Nope! All I get is a box with PHP code in it! Do I have to install something to get this to work???!?!?!

You first determine which version of the template you want and create a file with that name placing the php/tml in it (this should be in your theme folder). The click the button to refresh the templates. Make sure the view works and then you can modify it a needed.

I want to change the complete Theme of a specific view in D6, that is I want to use theme 1 (e.g Garland) for view 1, and theme 2 (e.g. Pushbutton) for view 2.
How do I do that?

Manipulating - adding specific tpl files (e.g. views-view--my-view-name--title.tpl.php) in the default theme directory does part of the trick, and you need to theme each single element of the view (in this case the title element). For example: how to change the logo for a specific view? Let us say I have a my-photo-view for displaying photos, and I want the logo to change to a photo-gallery.png logo, and have dark colors in the page, etc.?

I read the docs, helps, but still did not find the easy way. Any hint?

Regards

I would guess these are page views in which case they have a path. If this is correct check out the Sections module which allows you to associate a theme with a path.
