>>you can keep the themes with the graphics, just dump the navigation structure and replace it as suggested to optimize your current titles<<

Freebee - One of us isn't understanding the other, and I'm not sure which is which.

First, I'm not the guy who has FrontPage or is maintaining the site. I gave the webmaster a bunch of modified text, which included modified page titles.

He got back to me and said that the page title also appeared in the page heading graphic up at the top and in the "nav bar" down below, and that my titles were too long to fit. My titles, of course, were not intended to be nav bar content, but it seems that that's the way that FP does things.

Now, if we dump the FP navigation, as you're suggesting, we dump the way all the page headers and nav bars graphics are done... which is to say the entire graphic structure of the site. I think it's ugly... actually kind of cutesy... but to a lot of people it looks better than plain text.

Yes... I can write a set of text links and put them in a table. I'm not being paid to do that, and I don't think that addresses the loss of graphics.

>>simple graphics<<

The webmaster is not a designer... and there are something like 14 pages with a bunch of little subpages, so that's a lot of simple graphics with no one to do them.
