Root Looking for some help...

Looking for some assistance. I rooted my old Samsung Fascinate and put Jelly Bean on it using the steps and downloads shown below. I am wanting to know how to install other ROMs. What are some other good ROMs for the Fascinate and how do I use them? Is it as easy as downloading them and dropping them onto the SD card and then booting into recovery and choosing the zip and flashing it? Is it more complicated that that? Thanks!

1. Root via Odin.
2. Push CWM Fixed for CM7 via Odin.
3. Reboot and then Boot into recovery via 3 button combo.
4. After downloading THS Build 2 -( Its basically ICS) and moved it to your SD card, Choose Zip from File and flash it.
5. Reboot.
6. Now you're going to do a soft boot into recover (hold the power button -> Reboot -> Recovery)
7. You can choose to do the Three Wipes again if you'd like.
8. Flash CM10 ROM.


The downloads:

CWM fixed for CM7 - [HOW TO] Upgrade to CyanogenMod7

THS Build 2 (ICS) - [ROM][ICS][IML74K] teamhacksung's ICS Port for Fascinate (BUILD 5) [01/14] - Fascinate Development - RootzWiki

THS Jelly Bean ROM CM10 - [ALPHA][ROM][4.1.1] CyanogenMod 10 for Samsung Fascinate - Updated 07/29 - Fascinate Development - RootzWiki

AOSP Jelly Bean ROM - [ALPHA][ROM] AOSP JellyBean 4.1.1 [7/30/12] - Fascinate Development - RootzWiki

*Note on the AOSP Jelly Bean ROM, flash this after flashing THS CM10.
 
Looks like my instructions. Well first of all we don't have many options to choose from except maybe 3 different Jelly Bean custom Roms. The only one that I haven't mentioned out of THS and AOKP is MIUI.

It gives a real clean feel to the device but I haven't tested the Jelly Bean version yet. Perhaps you can try it, I'll try to share that link soon.
