Francky, thx a lot for taking the time to make up a custom example for  
me :-)... you guys are the best.

I had thought of the 3x2 way before too, but really was hoping there  
was some better way.  In general I don't do "slices" (especially image  
slices).  My brain just doesn't work that way.  To me, things that look  
like they are probably elements, should really be elements in the  
markup.  Gee, just because I'm willing to use a <table> doesn't mean I  
have no principles at all! :-).  "Slices" are just too bletcherous and  
old-skool.  I looked at Georg's sample and decided to do it that way...  
even though it had some things that have to be positioned "by hand"  
(whenever I have to give calculate / measure / dead-reckon something  
that it seems the browser should be able to figure out, it always feels  
wrong), I find that solution to be minimally offensive :-)
