looks like a good start

ah, good ole php. good stuff.

have you considered starting to use CSS? i notice your dumping all your style tags into the body, with no CSS include...

it'd probably be good to start moving the styles to a CSS include, such that later when your site gets bigger, you can change style attributes from one central location rather than search/replace on 50 html files and 20 includes.

it also helps you keep your fonts, colors, sizes and such more consistent. not that they are inconsistent now, but it's easier to manage via a CSS include.

css is really easy, dont get intimidated by another fancy three letter accroym.

just tag as class=, add the class to the css include, and bing bam. gbn (well, all phpbb boards, really) are css enabled if you need some examples of how it works.

if you want a CSS-aware web-design app to play with (such that you dont have to code the CSS by hand) i'd recommend dreamweaver. its grrr8, but commercial. if you prefer to stay open-source, or want the platform indepence of java in your css editor, i would then recommend morphon @ http://www.morphon.com/csseditor/ -- either tool can help you greatly when your still green to css.
