font sizes on new website

[Laurel A. Williams]

Hi Erin,

Though I loved the flap images, the re-design is more practical. 
Currently a change in font-sizes and styles requires a change in the 
text positioning. Maintenance-wise, it is a bit of a pain to keep the 
text "on the flap" if we change to Verdana or if we want to increase the 
text size. Your revised design will allow us to change the fonts more 
easily.
