That looks good. At least this time I'm the correct side of London :-)

I've setup an example for the new developers page at

<http://www.PostgreSQL.ORG/~wieck>

The image size is adjusted for the page width.

To maintain the hotspots I made a little, slightly
overspecialized, Tcl/Tk application that creates the imagemap
so it can easily be pasted into the page.

I'll contact you and Vince via private mail after packing it
up.
