Edit
Coding is difficult for new people, so I will give an example of the code box at the top of my page:
{| style="background-color:#FFFF00; border:1px solid #CCFF00; padding-right:3px; padding-left:3px; padding-top:3px; padding-bottom:3px; -moz-border-radius: 1em;" -webkit-border-radius: 1em;" align="center" width="100%"

That is your standard box. You can change the color and border to whatever you wish.
Drop Boxes:
Edit
People have trouble with drop boxes, so you have this:

!bgcolor="silver"|
