To make a page.php copy your index.php or whatever file closest resembles the way you want your final page to look. Rename it whatever you want and then stick this at the top of the page.

<?php
/*
Template Name: my_new_page
*/
?>

This should now appear in the drop down list for Page Template on Write > Write Page in Wordpress.

This is when it starts to grow the .htaccess file. When you start to add these sort of pages.
