This weekend I'm setting up a website for an academic event. I'd like the homepage of the site to have large, clickable progress bars that display the number of posts for each of the subpages (News & Announcements, Blog, Events, etc.). As more posts are added to each of the subpages (posts would likely be sorted and displayed by category and tag), its respective progress bar takes up more screen real estate and the tally count listed on/near it increases. Basically, I want the homepage to look like a giant, dynamic bar chart. Is there a freeware (or cheap) template, widget or piece of code that allows me to do this? [more inside]

What is your favorite method to get <div style="width:400px;height:300px;"> to be in the center of a page (both horizontally and vertically)? Preferably CSS rather than tables.

CSSFilter: I am building a wordpress site that uses a basic two column layout with floating div elements inside a fixed-width div .
