the layout should match on all sites, as much as possible... 
search fields should appear in the same place as they do on weo... 
and the blacktabnavbarthingie is sacrosanct and should always 
appear as it does on the weo site...

sounds bad, but have no recollection what the full url is to deo, so i 
can't comment other than to say, if it splits from the style of weo, it 
needs to be checked...
