Hello everyone,
I am new to webdesigning and would like your input.

I was visiting this website download.com , I saw that on the page there is an area with a large picutre and four different buttons. When I click on each button a different picture with text appears. I would like to do something like that on my personal website, I would like if you can let me know how to do this and which software was used in this.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Most of the styles are on this stylesheet:-

I doubt whether I have listed all the code, there is some javascript as well.

You should not use the code without permission, but the general principles can be followed if they are general knowledge.
