Just backing up that I do have some idea what Im on about thats all :)

The banner at the top wasnt to tricky actually.

the 2 center images were carefully cut out of screenshots and reduced in size and added to a black background to blend with the black already there.

The right image is off an Xbox game pack, Halo to be precise ;)

and the Xbox logo is again of a pack. I found an Xbox font and just added the word Rules.com underneath. Very nice look for very little work. Less is more and all that :)

So in total there are 4 seperate images and a exact size as to allow most resolutions to read the site easily:

800x600
1024x768
1280x1024

and a few more.

Hope that helps.

Ive had a look, I see where you are heading and their are some nice ideas on there.

The green is far to in your face, and marquee's really shouldnt be on sites anymore, they are to ugly :)

Oh and before you ask me as well:

P:S Php is a good launguage, try others as well though like SSI (thats shtml extensions). Php and SSI are great for having multiple pages on 1 visible page making site updates and navigation much easier then say frames or manually altering each page!
