Hi Gabriel
I hadn’t seen that site before, very cool (velhetica.com). I do something similar but not as well styled as that. It’s pretty simple and straightforward.
You will need to play around with the styling to achieve the look you want. Here is my code for my index.php file:-
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="pagecontainer_home">
<div id = "biglogo">
</div>
<div style="margin-top:250px; padding-left:30px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto; text-align:center;">
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td>
<div id="postsblock">
<?php query_posts('showposts=8'); ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div id="blogbox">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php the_time('d/m/y') ?> | <?php the_time('g:i a') ?>
<p><?php the_excerpt(); ?></p>
</div>
<?php endwhile; /* rewind or continue if all posts have been fetched */ ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
The css styling for the blogbox is:-
#blogbox{
border-right:1px solid #666666;
font-size: 1.25em;
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
text-align: left;
padding-left:10px;
padding-bottom:30px;
float:left;
width:200px;
padding-right:20px;"
min-height:500px;
}

Hope this helps!
