This ROM is veeeery newbie friendly. It is very easy to install and is also quite stable. It is pre-themed. Personally I like it... a LOT. I like it right up there with the ROM I consider to be the top of the line, which is ApeX.
The good thing is that newbies have quite a selection of fine roms to play with nowadays. We couldn't always say that.
They are:
1) ApeX 1.3.1
2) Fission 2.4.3
3) Chevy ssx 1.1 (this one)
4) GummyJar (I haven't tested this one yet, but I've heard super things about it)
5) RubiX
These are all Newbie friendly. There are other good ones, but they are not as stable, so I can't recommend them to you until there are some bug fixes.

Edit: If while installing ApeX or Ssx 1.1 you get an error message while installing asking your to force close or wait, select wait, then hit the power button and reboot. You'll be fine. It's a glitch with ClockworkMod Recovery.
