ok i give in :-)
lets keep them similar somehow, see a top-suggestion (:-))
involving an image though, at

http://www.bullitt.suite.dk/mod_perl_site/examples/top/top_ex.html


not sure if they (top-widget) should be kept left-aligned ??

well that might well be, but from a user-friendly point of
view i just like the fact that i the user can see beforehand
that this navigation goes to another site (commercial or
whatever) and i even think in our case more so, because it
is so full of information and a new user might get lost
inside the wealh of information. also it is not always true
that a user just can click back (some sites redirect the
back function to their own sites - well not those we link to
of course .-))
