Hi again ;)

Afterthought; I have a few suggestions:

. The most used buttons will be the selectors at the top right. They are 
far.
My suggestion is to put those selector under the page title. To see an 
example, this is what we
are doing at our comapny (page under construction):
http://nuovo.borghigroup.it/

. Figure out a very good place for the search bar. That is the most 
important
tool of all in my view.

bye

Nicola
