    Oh yes, I agree. Very nice.

    I like having the transparency in the banner as well as in all the columns.

    Kathy- thanks so much for this-your kind words are much appreciated.

    Bill-thanks, re-the transparency…I was sort of envisioning the banner and sidebar buttons as rusty ironwork-like old gates you can see through.
