How would you define "better"? Do you want the text to "move up", rather
than have the paragraphs get separated, while still retaining the edge that
curves around the goat?
BTW, the effect is pretty clever as is, and resizes nicely on my
NT/MSIE4/various browser sizes. At 800 the white space is fine, IMO. At
1024, well, people who have their browser that wide are probably used to
seeing funky layout things happen on non-fixed width pages.

let this be known as the first post where I have said: "while still
retaining the edge that curves around the goat" :p
