I've set up a sample at http://towo.net/cygwin/cygwin.html to demonstrate that a lot can be tuned with minimal modification of the actual HTML page (just one line, the reference to the style sheet). So the modified navigation area is completely style-sheet-driven only. By the way, wasn't the discussion going towards the fancy new hippo icon to replace the edgy C? Actually I had the idea to modify the hippo slightly to carve a letter C along the shape of its bottom... Maybe someone with more experience in graphics tools could give it a try......
