What would you do with the images? That was the messy part of the original http://www.openoffice.org/awards page. Images of different size and mixed left and right placement. The images are the jewels in the treasury. But the book page doesn't need to deal with images. If you have time to put together a simple prototype I'd love to see what this would look like. -Rob > > >> >> -Rob >> >> >> >> >> >> > -Rob >> > >> > >> >> Others also can comment so that the page can be improved further >> >> >> >> With Warm Regards >> >> >> >> V.Kadal Amutham >> >> 919444360480 >> > > > > -- > Alexandro Colorado > Apache OpenOffice Contributor > http://es.openoffice.org
