it was never *that* bad, and it has improved since last I looked
(background colours added to main menu options). And the way the main
menu options had previously dropped behind the head-and-shoulder pics
was the main problem - now solved.

The only outstanding nit-pick is on max text size (in safari), the 3rd
menu option overwrites some of the page content. If you allowed the
options to remain on one line, i.e. allowed them to extend right this
wouldn't be an issue.
