George-

Actually, the image "thetoyz_logo.jpg" is just the part "up to" the "shop" 
link.  The rest of the "image" is actually a background image that is repeated 
(a 5px wide image of only the blue bar). On top of that background image are 
the text links and the "separator" 2px vertical images.

Back when this was done, it was tricky because of the "search box" fitting 
where it does (It's too long to try and explain why it was done this way, but 
it worked at the time!).

My idea is that this will all be torn down and rebuilt without the use of the 
tables but for not I'm hoping to get it to work with the tables until I have 
more time...

Your idea does, however, point me in a different direction that I may be able 
to make work by applying it to the smaller background image :-)
