Pre-made Light Settings?
I could probably get some maps going, but the only thing I can't seem to get working properly is the lighting.
I will give credit to anyone who can do this...
Or if someone could make a guide for setting up lighting for the various themes (step by step would be nice) that would work too.

Portal 2 already has "pre-made lights." They're located in the instances/lights folder.
Are they actual instances or do I have a lot of individual settings on each instance for a particular theme?

No individual settings. But if you want some, just add some light_spots to those (since most of the wall-lights are relatively dark).
There's a lot of info on the mapping wiki yes, but it doesn't really have many tutorials on how to set up the lighting/instances etc.
It basically just says 'here's the instance name, here's how to use it' :/
I would really appreciate it if someone made some video tutorials on the following.
1: How to set up a room with nothing in it aside what is needed for certain kinds of lighting.
2: How to make the lighting for the various themes. (Underground, Wheatly, Clean, Overgown...)
I feel like if I can learn that, everything else will be easier to learn.
