Yeah, that was intentional.

Yes, I'm out of ideas for submenu "look and feel".

When you look at the CSS, you'll see that the submenus are
painstakingly positioned.  A change for one position value or
dimension value might throw the entire placement off, or might disrupt
cross-browser compatibility.  So, be careful!  :-)

If you can find better colors for the boxes and submenu that would be
great.  As you can tell, the idea is to link the colors of the boxes
to the appropriate piece of the submenu, as well as to create
*contrast* between the boxes.  But the color scheme should still
"blend", IMO.

Thanks,
