Use the new 1.0.4 Kitchen, download it from the sticky at the top of this forum and read the walkthru in the download, it explains how to do everything. Also read the entire sticky thread about the kitchen to familiarize yourself with the kitchen features.
Its nearly impossible with the new kitchen to brick your phone. The only common problem is getting stuck in bootloader, but there is a sticky about that too.
There is really no need to do a complete backup because the kitchen is so well done, and so much better than the stock roms. But I believe Sprite Backup and SPB Backup both do "complete" backups.
BTW, Welcome to PPCGeeks!
Since you are brand new the SEARCH feature at the top of this page should be your new best friend!
