You could use the xilinus prototype windows library and build a custom theme. You can find it at http://prototype-window.xilinus.com/. You can put virtually anything in a window...the only things that I've found that don't work are webpages with frame-busting code. If anything, you might find that this library is overkill for what you are trying to do.
I use it on my home page (http://bgok.net) to show images, other webpages and video in a javascript window. I use a standard theme, but building themes isn't difficult if you have a good graphics/image program like photoshop, fireworks or gimp.
