He's just adding a horizontal rule after each title.

<h1>Firefox &amp; Opera - Web browser</h1>
<p><hr /><br />
The reverse black console text is just a custom CSS style, probably.

<div class="console">
sudo cp gaim.png /usr/share/pixmaps/
</div>

As said above looking at the page source he is using the <hr> (horizontal rule) code.


How to wrap the codes in those black boxes ?

This is done with CSS. You need to add to your CSS a div tag either ID or class (most likely class) and then put the code for the box in the CSS style code markup. Here's just a brief example something very easy and off the top of my head...



.box {
width: 500px;
height: 50px;
background-color: #000000;
color: #FFFFFF;
}

That is of course just something as a hint. But you get the idea on it.

As for moving your wordpress blog there are a few questions you need to answer before its clear how it can or cannot be moved. Sometimes with free sites its not as easy as when you have paid for hosting.

1. Do you use FTP to upload any files to the site or better yet do you have FTP access to the wordpress install you have?
2. Are you able to download all the files off your free wordpress pages via FTP?
3. Does the free server you want to go to support you uploading & configuring your current wordpress files?
4. Do you have access to the MySQL database so you can back it up & download it?

In order to move a wordpress site including the database you need to pretty much have access to everything on the site including backend functions. If not then there is little to no way to move the site. Unless you can get the site owners to move it for you or back it up for you and send it to you via e-mail or something. Its always best to purchase your own hosting, its so much easier to have your site and have full access to these things. There are many hosting companies that are quite affordable these days.
