In other words, how do you want these other variants of your front page reached? What would trigger the presentation of one front page variant vs. another? On the basis of login status? Role? Date? Browser type? etc.

Are you aware that the Front Page module will give you a different front page for anonymous users, and then for logged in users, the potential for differents front pages for different roles?

First, we need the answer to the question I posted above under "Accessible How?". Are you planning a Splash Page with links to the various "Front" pages, or will each area (such as gaming and video) be reached via a different subdomain (such as http://gaming.example.com and http://video.example.com)?

Yes thanks for the reply.

I would want them to be on one site without subdomains. Yes i plan to have a splash page. Then with games, videos and pictures going to their own pages. But the big thing is no categories.

I am not seeing the problem. Say that your splash page is accessed at http://www.example.com. On that splash page, you will have links to the "front" page of each section (i.e., subject area). Can't you just create a regular node for each "front" page? For example, the games front page would have a URL Alias of games.htm; the video front page would have a URL Alias of video.htm; and so on. Is there some need that this would not satisfy? And more specifically, how is the desire to NOT use Taxonomy entering into this?

Technically a website can only have one frontpage and that's the page located in the root of your website. What you want to do is make several portal pages, for example /videos/ and /games/. You can create these by making a page for videos and games and customizen them with blocks that are only displayed on that specific page.
