I am wondering how to make a sky box that has the textures on the inside so the cam sees textures not just blue screen.

Choose all the faces in your cube (or whatever the skybox is) and flip them.

Don't render it with fog, or past your far clipping plane.

How do I do that I am having trouble figuring how to usethe program other then just drawing things on the grids and having it show in the 3d window. I can't figure out how to edit my image after I have made it. If I want to change something I have already made I remake it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "edit my image". If you draw some primitives like cubes, cylinders etc, you can easily manipulate them after placing them. Select them using shift+leftmouse and then edit individual polygons or vertices.

If you want to manipulate the rendering (image) of the 3D view, simply create a screenshot (rightclick on 2D or 3D views) and adjust the screenshot in any paint program, like The Gimp or Photoshop.

Vampyre_Dark actually answered that one already. Create and select your cube. Goto Polygon mode and select all your polygons. Then use the flip command. Polygons will be flipped and thus, they will be visible from the inside of your cube. Having a polygon selected and then picking a material from the Material Picker puts that material on that polygon.

I suggest you read the Help file that comes with DeleD. It does not explain every detail but does point out the basics.

Yes, it really works. Move your camera inside the cube and you'll see it works. Smile
