I am looking at drupal powered sites and there are many impressive sites powered by it.

I like following website style.

http://www.theworld.org/

I wonder how do I create like this one.

Is there any ready-made template like this?

thanks

That site has probably been made by a large team over a few months.

Firstly, themes can be found on drupal.org, www.templatemonster.com, probably other sources.

Look at CCK, views, panels. These allow complex layouts and views with no coding. Imagecache is the tool of choose via these tools, although Image is easier to use

Once you understand these, dive into the custom coding/modifications of the themes, templates and hooks. This is when your site starts to shine.

Have a look at the project showcases listed on the site. They are a great place to get a feel for the system and how to do things.
