Hi All,
 
I have to redo a new home page for a website I work on, based on the
designer's design. It is pretty intricate and complicated (for me). CSS is
not my biggest strength, but I am getting there!
 
Anyway, I have a screen shot of the design, if anyone has any suggestions
about the best way to lay this out, I would greatly appreciate it!
I think one choice is to take the background from the original FireWorks
image and use it as a background image in the main div, with lots of divs
inside this main div.

I think you can see where I have to add code, the log in form, the poll at
the bottom of the page, the quick search boxes have roll over images, and I
rotate through the featured candidates and projects on the left and right.

About the bottom 5 "housekeeping" links, can I leave those in an image and
use an image map? Do I do an image map in PhotoShop, or is it all
javascript?
 
Thank you so much for any insight you might have.
 
Cheers,
Nan
