Fair enough. I guess I was a bit unsure about your difficulty
when you said earlier:
"The complication ... would appear to be that currently
the only thing that changes between pictures is the content of
the right hand frame and more importantly, perhaps, with it
changes the 'next' link which is on the same page. If the new
top right box remains static, not only does the contents of the
picture frame have to change, but so does the 'next' link above?
A simpler solution would be to add a 'home' button to the top
left of every page."
I did not see it as very complicated given the few pics you
had... so i was wondering what the problem was? Also, you
perhaps do rate the look of things differently to me? I think it
is a bit fiddly looking to have a a home button in a top frame
on the left above a left frame with a scrollbar that starts
under it...? and then a next button up on the top frame to the
right... and I have made suggestions to alter this. You have
also said you would have a positioning problem if you put these
links in the main content page and I made suggestions to address
this.
Just by the way, this may be idiosyncratic of me, but I think of
buttons as things that look like buttons, pics, images,
button-looking things. A link is a just a text link. But true,
it is sort of pressable and maybe you are more in touch with
most folks??
Anyway, best of luck to you...
