Hi Ben,
I tried your last suggestion but was not sure how to handle making the
Usernomics image float left. There was no image map on it so I added
one (imgmap6) and floated it left. But that did not work. You can see
this version at http://www.usernomics.com/user-experienceTEST.html .
As you can see, I don't really know what I am doing here.
Note that I removed the 25px from the top by making all of the images
imgmap4. Can you see how I should handle the Usernomics image?
Thanks a lot Ben,
Bob
