styling the default theme

First, let me say that I really enjoy the ability to simply apply a style to the default theme by uploading a stylesheet. After working with it, I do have some suggestions:

The gallerytitle area is difficult to style because the links are h2 elements. Because these are span type objects, you can't apply a height to them. I prefer to use an unordered list type of system with a li.currentpage class for the current page.

Also: most themes have the admin toolbox positioned absolutely in the corner. If you want to use absolute positioning, it doesn't matter where in the document you place the toolbox. I think it would be best placed at the end of the document, for those who wish to style using block level formatting and place the admin toolbox in a sidebar or footer. It is much more difficult to place an object at the bottom of the page using absolute positioning...

    bigbri, the nightly build will have the admin toolbar at the bottom in all themes. If you get the other suggestion done please submit it to the trac site like sbillard mentioned.
