Hi, I am in the same boat as you. I have OSX 10.3 running photoshop CS.
the problem is that there is no theme making app for mac. here is my 2 solutions anyway.

1) Do all your design work on Mac, (photoshop) and then borrow a PC. I am lucky to have a flexible employer that lends me the dell laptop. Use theme studio and compile the sis file

2) using virtual PC you can use the follwing method (unmakesis --> bmconv --> Photoshop --> Bmconv).

* Unmake the sis file.
* Use BM conv to extract all theme elements
* Change each element in the theme BMP files (very very hard to change 90+ files)
* BMconv all bmp files into Mbm file
* bluetooth to phone

I would use the 2nd method ONLY for minor alterations or amends to themes instead of making a complete new theme, the 2nd method is quite painful and time consuming!!

Nokia --> fools, make something for macs, We are your customers too!!

Hope this helps.
