The problem is that I can't use scp with a gsm    connection (think
  ssh :/ ). If you prefer, I can send you the tgz so you put them on  
 the server

I know, I don't like it too :/ I'll redesing a lot of the CSS soon.

Err... this is a feature. This is one thing I really like with CSS.
Everything is calculated with pixel size and so on. IMHO I prefer a menu
overlapping just a little the main div than separating them, it's more
'cosmetical'.

In fact, I was thinking about using LCD-style text for the menus. There
 are three solutions :
- generate the images once, but we'll have problems with dynamic menus
(doc, ...)
- write the images in the server, with a PHP script, it's something very
doable, but maybe it would be slow.
- create one image for each 'character'

We can merge two types (eg: static images for top menu, then character
images for dynamic ones).

Bye !
