I think it would be more appealing if you used the same sized image for each category. (And at least you should provide width and height attributes so layout can complete before the images are loaded) You might also want to consider using something like http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/ for nicer default font sizes etc. Hadley -- Assistant Professor / Dobelman Family Junior Chair Department of Statistics / Rice University http://had.co.nz/ ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
