I think the only major change I see for the main website (well the front page at least) is it should be skinnier I think. 800px with a scrollbar has to be possible for any website. Usually for a blog I don't think you want it any wider unless the user increases the browsers fontsize (like ctrl+plus)
My recommendation would be to limit the Welcome message to one paragraph and stick a "read more" link after it that either expands it or goes to the "About" page. Then move all the content stuff underneath it, so everything to the left can be blog (some of the blog articles from the phpnuke setup could be copied over to fill up the space)
Still that wouldn't leave room for a traditional blog sidebar, but at least it would be a start.
I think eventually we could incorporate the game graphics into random advertisements that show up like between the blog posts and elsewhere. Of course there would be another page devoted to the games (probably accessible from the inactive "games" link atop the page layout)
