Theme development

I am creating a custom template and I have been able to figure out almost everything through searching drupal, but i can't figure out how to control where i want the output from a module displayed.

For example:

I'm trying to put Recent Updates, Top Viewed Media, and Who's Online in their own boxes on the template. You can see that here

I need to switch from three column to two column layout based on node type (e.g., when I display a node of type foo I want to switch layout.) Should I do this directly in page.tpl.php?

Thanks!

</ul>

I would like the output to be:

Hello,

My knowledge of Drupal is somewhat limited. I understand how to build a template conceptually but something that I'm having difficulty in practice is the placement of static images.

An example of what I am talking about is my attempt to convert a personal site of mine into a Drupal managed site. http://www.djpsiphon.com/
