Doing it in PS is easy if you have the logo, just make a rectangle of appropriate size and add a linear gradient to it from top to bottom with tow colors o choice (jomla is using a lighter and a darker shade of blue) then on a new layer add the logo and text and if needed more text on a 3rd layer. Then link the layers together or merge them and press ctrl-t to bring up the transformation wizard. Hold shift and rotate the banner 45 degrees. cut of the corners at the top to bottom with a inverted rectangular marquee and you are set.
I havnt ot a clue on how to make it corner sticky in your browser though.

Ask a admin to move this to the web design area, i do bet you'd have better luck asking there as it isn't PS related.

I believe you can use CSS to absolutely position the image wherever you'd like on the page.

You cannot use that logo exactly. Since it belongs to joomla. I would imagine if you did at the very least you would get flamed out of excistance. At worst have joomla's lawyers on your back.
You would need to change it somehow.

Oh ok.. I thought you said you wanted to recreate it.
Easy.
The black bar is a background image and the logo is an image on top. Sorta like this:

CSS:
HTML:
The above will absolutely position the logo div to the top right of the page.
body {
position: relative;
}
#logo {
background-image: url(path to image);
width: width of logo;
height: height of logo;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
}
HTML:
<body> <div id="logo"></div> </body>
The above will absolutely position the logo div to the top right of the page.
