  Has anyone ever seen or done a website with this type post gallery?

  tutorials

  The images are linked to previously posted blog posts. I love the navigation at the top, the size of the images and the uniformity of the whole thing. Any ideas on if this is a plugin or CSS coding?

  Obviously I’d like it to populate automatically as new posts (with that tagged category perhaps) is posted.

  Any help would be appreciated!!

  You are pointing to a site that’s not hosted by WordPress.com.

  You cannot build or use your own custom theme built from scratch at WordPress.com.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
  You cannot upload any third party themes.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/
  The only themes we can use are those found here > Appearance > Themes
  This is a multiuser blogging platform. All blogs wearing the same theme are using the same underlying template and we cannot access the underlying files and edit templates or themes. http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/editing-themes/

  There are two free themes, Sandbox and Toolbox designed to allow maximum flexibility for CSS editing and creating new “skins”. Toolbox is more modern and includes a lot of support for CSS3 and HTML5, so it is really only limited by your skills and knowledge.

  If you have CSS editing experience the upgrade will allow you to stylize the appearance of themes you find here > Appearance > Themes, but will not allow you to change the functionality, by editing the underlying template. It does not allow you to remove footer links to the theme designer or to WordPress.com. Also note that CSS is theme specific, so you cannot use the CSS stylesheets from other themes with the themes at WordPress.COM. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/custom-css/

  If you are talking about a setting up a site on WordPress.com, have a look at the Theme Showcase. There’s a whole section on “Portfolio” themes and perhaps one of the themes there will suit your needs. Hatch, Triton Lite, Mixfolio, Gridspace are some themes that come to mind.
