something like this...

The blue one is the blog thingy I was trying to make... What do I do to make one? Do I have to install Wordpress or Nucleus or b2evolution for it? Or is it possible to just make them with coding?

About the one in the red box, how do you place a forum's log in on a website?

I'm really new to this...

Thanks for the time :D

In this case, you need Nucleus (That was a demo site for nucleus =p )
If you try nuclues, try drupal. Drupal is very user friendly.
To install Content Management Systems...
Login to your site (http://yoursite.com:2082 ) and click Fantastico. Then click a Content Management System you want on the left. Now install.
:)

.....drupal....thats not blogging. thats just cms...

I would recomend using cutenews, yes i know...funny name. It is a news management system that is extremely easy to use. you can see a demo at http://www.cutephp.com

Well if you want your blog to be searchable on google and feature prominently then use WordPress. I'm in full support for Drupal but if you only need a blog. Get a friendly, powerful and google searchable one - like Wordpress.org

i hate drupal....you need advanced PHP to uninstall it, cause it suposobly needs the shell_exec();


anyways, i think my idea would be what he is looking for, because it can be integrated into his existing site.

assuming it is installed in the folder, /cutenews/ :

Code:
<!-- LOGIN area -->
<form  name=login action='cutenews/index.php' method=post>
     <tr>

       <td width=80>Username: </td>
       <td width='160'><input tabindex=1 type=text name=username value='' style='width:150;'></td>
       <td>&nbsp;</a></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
       <td>Password: </td>
       <td><input type=password name=password style='width:150'></td>
       <td>&nbsp;<a href='register.php?action=lostpass'>(lost password)</a> </td>
      </tr>
      <tr>

       <td></td>
       <td style='text-align:left'>
          <input accesskey='s' type=submit style="width:150; background-color: #F3F3F3;" value='      Login...      '><br/>
       </td>
       <td style='text-align:left'><label for=rememberme title='Remmber me for 30 days, Do not use on Public-Terminals!'>
         <input id=rememberme type=checkbox value=yes style="border:0px;" name=rememberme>
Remember Me</label> </td>
      </tr>

      <tr>
       <td align=center colspan=4 style='text-align:left;'></td>
      </tr>
     <input type=hidden name=action value=dologin>
     </form>
    </table>         <!--LOGIN area-->
