What do you mean by webpage? Do you mean a single wiki page? Then just use the wiki syntax, etc. If you mean you want to change the design of your Tiki site overall, then here's how to get started.

The appearance of Tiki pages is set by templates and CSS files. Each theme has a stylesheet file. It may also have background images, etc., and may have its own versions of some template files. Look at Tiki's file directory structure and you can see what each theme uses (see the styles/ and templates/styles directories).

The usual recommendation to make a new theme is to take an existing theme that's closest to what you want, and copy its stylesheet file and templates, and rename them for your theme. Then edit the stylesheet to get the new look, put the graphics you want to use in styles/yournewtheme/, and so on.

If the positions of Tiki's top bar, left, right, and center columns, and bottom bar are OK for you but the colors, borders, font, etc. aren't, you can probably make a new theme by just editing an existing CSS file and saving it with a new name. If you want to make bigger layout changes, you might need to alter the tiki-top_bar.tpl file or tiki.tpl or whatever is used for the section to be changed. Tiki checks first in a theme's directory for each template file; if there's no theme-specific file, it uses the default file.

Maybe you should describe more what you have in mind.
