based on what I see... Zen can do your homepage right "out of the box"

You should be able to this with the Zen theme just with CSS and not changing the page template at all. I remember starting Delcious Fruit as a Drupal theme, but at the end the client didn't like it so I went with something else.

For the date icon you could use something like this:

<div class="post-date"><span class="post-month"><?php print (format_date($node->created, 'custom', 'M')) ?></span> <span class="post-day"><?php print (format_date($node->created, 'custom', 'd')) ?></span></div>

I'm sure there are more elegants way to do it, but that's what I came up with last year, you can do the rest with CSS, here is an example of a theme I made (Old old version of Zen) that uses that code: http://mulpo.com/

If you want to theme a date field instead of the date the node was created, have a look at this: http://drupal.org/node/172253#comment-267425

Can someone help me a little bit.

I try to make my old layout in Drupal.
But when i do the "header" picture as a logo picture.
The site name and logo are way of line.

How can i solve this ?

For most themes if you want

For most themes if you want to use a "logo picture" you need to choose an image that is exactly (or at least about) the same size as the one that comes with the theme, or you will have to start modifying the theme's templates and/or CSS.

In which case you might as well turn off the logo picture from showing and - start modifying the theme's templates and/or CSS. In my case I created a new region and put my "header graphic" content in a block.

In the world of Drupal, this is called "Theming", and it will take you a lot of time and energy to get good at it.

A good place to start, depending on what version of Drupal you're using, is the appropriate section of the Handbook.

D6: http://drupal.org/theme-guide

D5: http://drupal.org/theme-guide/5

PS You'll probably get more/better help if you start a new thread, and perhaps choose a more appropriate place to post - e.g. Post-installation forum.

PPS You'll also get more/better help if you provide more detail and ideally a URL to your dev site.

PPPS You'll get MUCH more/better help if you follow this guide:

Oke,

Thank you for the tips.
I solved it myself by using the header tag instead of the logo tag.

And you can find my dev site at : http://drupal.tamarawobben.nl
