I'm new on drupal. I want to use it to create a normal company website which with a navigation bar including links like for example
about us services products solutions contact us
All contents of the about is only administrate and create by company's web adminisatrator therefore it's not necessary to show a "user login" for people to registeration.
Then I first create a "About us" but every time I access the site e.g. http://www.mycompany.com It will display a "user login" block if browser session is not logged in.
How do I configure such that anonymous people just browse the website's contents I created without showing the "user login"block
I found some show cases developed using drupal, they don't present with a user login block http://www.latuk.com/ http://www.tacticaltech.org/ how they did it ?
ps. the layout something like http://images.templatemonster.com/screenshots/11300/11346-b.jpg
you can see that this type of website is not necessary to provide user registration function

This thread from yesterday asks and answers your question: http://lists.drupal.org/pipermail/support/2006-June/002901.html
Drupal is not very "brochure site friendly". I am not saying it is not posible, because it certainly is. It just requires quite intimate knowledge of Drupal and Drupal theming to get such a *simple* site going. You will find that 80% of the time, used for building such a site, goes into disabling and hiding features Drupal core provides.
Dries has asked us numerous times to come up with solutions and patches that allow such simple sites to be build easier, but so far it seems the developers have little interest in that, since I have n't seen a lot of patches. (Nor did I present a lot of pathces)
However, I _might_ have good news :)

This is **exactly** the installation profile (as in: when you get the site, it has all this by default) what we are working on for sympal.
Right now there is nothing released, becuase it is a) not release-worthy and b) we want to work out some missing functionality first. And even if we release something, it will be aimed at developers and consultants who want to build such sites for clients (ie Drupal Savvy people).
Sympal.nl might be worth looking at, for these brochure sites exactly is what we deliver for our clients. I know that Bryght(.com) has similar services (aimed at brochure sites) and I am sure other consultants will help you get up to speed too with such a site.
