Can someone please give outline a step by step process of flashing a ROM. I am not used to this version of CWM. I know I need to clear cache and data, but what are the called exactly in recovery? I see a lot of "clear" type options, but I don't want to choose the wrong one and f*** up my phone. Thanks for any help.
 
I installed the ROM Manager (paid version), but it says I need to install CWM from the app. Does it not recognize that I already had it installed when I rooted the phone? Will I brick my phone if I install CWM again via ROM Manager? Thanks.
Your fine to install it again. and there is a ROMing guide on the stickied ROM/root thread

I tried to flash OMGB, but could not get the google apps flashed correctly. Does anyone know where to get those?

In the end I went back to stock so my phone works tomorrow. The rom is so sick, I have to try again.

heres some Gapps bro:
