The GD theme has a root album splash page. I've never used it so perhaps Serge will chime in or some other GD theme user.
as for the links I bet he is using a combination of these modules:
...
You would have to code that into the root album page.
(could be developed into a module)
Dave covered most of it...
as far as custom root page - theme supports custom templating:
In themes folder create folder called custom
create views folder inside
copy rootpage.html.php from the theme into this folder
customize it any way you like to get desired look and feel
Done
PS: using this approach would spare you shock loosing your changes when you update the theme next time
using the same technique you can create custom header (using header.html.php) and footer (with footer.html.php).

I have that one too, but how did they create the first page with the links along the top and bottom?
