You talk about design and then immediately follow with implementation (PHP, CSS, etc). I think the best way would be to look at what other sites are doing and then get a designer to give you a few examples for your site. Once you have the design, implementation is easy, because you know what to do.

Designing and coding a sponsors page is part of the developer's life (at
least the lucky developer's life, if it is about a personal site of
theirs). It, however, follows different rules than those for the other
pages of the site. You have to find a way to fit a lot of information
and organize it clearly, so that the emphasis is put on your sponsors,
and not on other elements of your design.But how to do it with PHP, CSS and jQuery?Any tips?
