I am gonna roll a new toon to use for pvp, opposed to usual the pve that I play.
I was wondering what peoples thoughts on leveling a character for pvp are, same as usual through lots of questing or should something else?

If you're leveling through BGs, make sure to do dungeons on the side. The gear from them far outweighs any of the honor gear, and you can get it much faster.
You could also do questing, but that would undermine the purpose of leveling through PvP, no?

Exposure is key.
If possible I would recommend you level on a high populated PvP realm for your first PvP toon (jump in the deep end.) As much as you may want to stay on the realm you're familiar with, leveling a toon on a crowded PvP realm really teaches you things that BGs alone sometimes can't. To be a good PvPer you want to develop a sixth sense for pre-emptive striking, crowd control & survival and I find the mechanics of BGs sometimes deprives you of that because you're expecting an attack in certain spots so you don't really learn anything new, nothing beats being always battle ready due to the paranoia you develop on PvP realms nor learning how to protect yourself after being grieffed for hours straight.
Leveling on a PvP realm you learn what favourite spells classes use against your class and after being torn a new one many times over you learn what counter spells you have to protect, damage and break CCs and eventually you'll find at times you can pre-empt what the other player will do. Basically it's in your face everyday so you can't help but learning how to become the best PvPer you can be. You learn to become aware of your surroundings, learn your strengths & weaknesses, learn about the other classes strengths & weaknesses and eventually you just get a natural feel for it.
Personally speaking I can tell when I'm faced with a PvE player in arenas/BGs because they kind of flounder around like a fish out of water. A player from a PvP realm is more calculating, they play you until you show them your power hand then they take you down hard - that's the kind of player you want to be and personally I think that comes from the unplanned everyday exposure they get from a PvP realm *nods sagely*
Here are some good Addons you want to keep close (there are others but these are pretty badass.):
GladiatorlosSA (it's a talking addon, you don't have a interface as such.)
OmniCC
LoseControl
Healers have to die
Interupt bar (if you're a caster)
If you choose to remain on PvE just try and get as much variety of PvP exposure as you can. If you find you're not learning anything new move onto something else (like arenas or even just quest being flagged.) Just be aware that leveling a PvP toon on a PvE realm is a slow process in the sense you need goals to help motivate you or you'll end up just speed leveling another PvE toon.
In a nut shell leveling on a PvP realm gives you the freedom to quest with the possibility of random PvP because that's the nature of the beast. Leveling on PvE will restrict you to BGs which can be slow and dull.
Have fun, PvP is badass and so much fun (♥_♥)
