    I need to put blocks on my frontpage for my wordpress blogs where it shows posts from certain categories. Is there a nice plugin for something like this?

    If I’m not mistaken, I believe you’ve been inspired by http://www.workathomemommies.com/ :-)

    If you want to learn how to widgetize a page so you can put whatever you want on it, here’s a great tutorial:
    http://wpmu.org/how-to-widgetize-a-page-post-header-or-any-other-template-in-wordpress/

    If you just want to style the appearance of blog posts on your frontpage, you can do that through CSS.
    There are any number of great resources and tutorials in the vast wilderness of cyberspace to help you learn what you need to know. To help you identify exactly what you need to change in your theme’s CSS to get the effect you want, I highly recommend installing the Firebug for Firefox addon:

    Hope this helps! :-)

    Oh yes, she has a beautiful page and I’ve left her link all over!

    Oh, I have the firebug thingy, but not being a coder, it sometimes doesn’t really make much sense to me, but I’m learning, slowly but surely.

    Thanks so much for taking the time in answering me. I will have a look at the resources you gave me, and will give feedback about my success.
