On the main Drupal.org homepage there are three modules at the top does any one know what modules those are?
I like this layout and was wondering what modules because i want to do something like this on my site.
Thanks.

Hmmm .. I am not sure of that. theming panels is not the easiest of the things :( and I for one suck at it ... So you will have to read up on it on drupal.org
There is another module called views .. may be that will also be worth looking for what you are trying to do.

Views and panels is confusing to begin with LCN and even after a year im still struggling a bit with them. drupal aint joomla and it does require a lot of work especially if you, like me, don't have a knowledge of php. It aint pick up and play but it is worth picking up in the long run IF you have a lot of spare time on your hands.
If i was looking at replicating the drupal.org thingy i suppose i would use mini-panels which is part of the lastest panels. the left one would simply be some blick with an image in it, the right would be some themed menu and ive been trying all year to make up something like the middle block. actually i tell a lie i think i have it sussed. you would make up a View (list view) and just add the text in the header of the View. i think that would just about do it.
