If you'd rather have the page body extend all the way to the right side of the screen, use page area properties to remove the "show this border" option for the right border. </div> <div> <I> <A NAME="note"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></I></div> <div> <I>Note:</I> My spellcheck disagrees with my dictionary on how the title of this design should be spelled. I'm siding with the dictionary because it matches da Vinci's spelling on the image that was used for the backgrounds.  However you spell it, a duodecahedron (or dodecahedron) is a three-dimensional object with 12 sides. Some people ascribe a magical/supernatural power to it. I'm not one of them. I just think it's an intriguing geometric design; da Vinci was often interested in the relationship of geometry to art. </div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <A HREF="index_m.htm" TITLE="Duodecahedron"><U><I>Top of page</I></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> </td> <td valign="top" width=185 BGCOLOR="#DDDDDD" TEXT="#080000" background="002ecec3.jpg"> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
