Default Creating a news page on vBulletin 5 "home"

Hello

I would like to make the "home" of my vBulletin 5 Connect to act as a news page.
There's this page at http://www.hardmob.com.br/content/ made on vB4 I guess, with a very well done layout, and I would like to make something similar.

Could someone give me any hint about how to customize my vB5 Connect to make a news page like the one above?

I've trying to use articles to do it, but I don't know on how to show the thumbnails on the left in a bigger size.
Also, on the header at http://www.hardmob.com.br/content/, they use a different image size, very big, with text included via html/css to show the main news, how can I make the vBulletin to add text in a specified area over the image? Is there any plugin available to do this kind of work?

I will appreciate any hint to help me to customize my forum to make a news page like this one.

Thanks a lot in advance

Same question here. Noone seems to be able to answer this question, wherever I looked.

It's not a simple question to answer. vB4.x has a module based CMS and also had a few third party CMS options like vBAdvanced. vB5 has a module system but the modules are less preconfigured and more flexible. The example site has created a different static HTML page for each content entry. That is a lot of time and effort. There is no add on or template modification that will do that for you.
