Very nice indeed James, thanks for passing me the links otherwise I would've missed 
out on seeing it...

The first word bold, second word normal thing seems to be gaining momentum amongst the 
various CSS sites I've seen lately, understandably as it is a nice effect for titles.

The first thing I though was 'oooh, how did he get the Go buttons to align so nicely 
with the form fields?', coz I had been trying to do it without resorting to a table or 
the deprecated align=absmiddle parameter.  Then I realised you're using images which 
gets around the problem, however this will eventually become an accessibility issue as 
the only way to submit the forms will be via href="javascript:submit()" on the image, 
no good for screen readers.  As soon as you replace the <img> with <input type=image> 
I'm pretty sure you'll have the same alignment issues I had.  If anyone knows of a 
solution for this I'd love to know!

That's that only thing I could find in what is an aesthetically pleasing design that 
is a credit to the WSG.  Maybe it's time for a WSG Member's portfolio?

pretty slick, I like it..

- with a few little coding tweaks you could probably eliminate most of 
your CSS IE width hacks.
- Rollover colours on top nav could have more contrast - difficult to 
read dark on dark..
- It seems weird to me that the underline disappears on mouseover of 
regular links..

well done.
