Hi Yui. The mod is pretty simple. You will have to interpret this a little: I hard-coded some of the templates since I know my announcement forum is not going to change; this saves a query or two, for what it's worth.
forumhome_la

</table>
<DIV class="announcementbox">
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead" colspan="3">
			<a href='forumdisplay.php?f=2' class="forumtitle" style="font-size: 130%; font-stretch:wider"><span class="smallfont" style="float:right;margin-top:3px">Click here to see all announcements</span>Latest Announcements!</a>
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody>
$latest_announce_thread_bit
</tbody>
<tbody>
	<tr>
		<td class="thead" colspan="3">
<a href='faq.php#faq_subscriptions' class="smallfont" style="float:right;margin-top:3px">Subscriptions and Sponsorships</a>
			<a href='http://rw.rmxp.org/index.php?title=rules' class="forumtitle" style="font-size: 130%; font-stretch:wider">Rules and Guidelines</a>
		</td>
	</tr>
</tbody>
</table></div><br />
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

Links will have to be tweaked to suit.


forumhome_la_threads

<tr>
<td class="tcat" style="font-size:90%" align="left" width="70%">

<span class="smallfont" style="float:right"><span style="cursor:pointer" onclick="window.open('member.php?u=$latest_announce_thread[postuserid]')">posted by $latest_announce_thread[postusername]</span></span>

<a href="showthread.php?t=$latest_announce_thread[threadid]" style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">$latest_announce_thread[title]</a>
</td>
<td class="alt1Active" align="left">
<center class="smallfont">Last post by <a href="member.php?find=lastposter&t=$latest_announce_thread[threadid]">$latest_announce_thread[lastposter]</a></center>
</td>
<td class="alt1Active" align="left">
<center class="smallfont">$latest_announce_thread[replycount] replies</center>
</td>
</tr>

And in Main CSS add this to the Additional CSS Definitions: (for the main skin you see on my forum default)

/* ***** style of box that contains latest announcements ***** */
.announcementbox{
padding:5px;
margin:0px;
border:solid #90e;
border-width:1px;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image: url("[whatever the background image of your forum is]");
background-repeat: repeat;
}

You will have to play with this to make it look right on your forum, I imagine, but it should get you started.
