Funnily enough I wanted to copy your right floating skin!!  I scanned 
your CSS files to see how you did it and it's a customised version of 
the skin you are using and you have a "float: right" as one of the 
customisations in an extra css file (it's a small file with just this 
one stanza in).

By the way, there is a firefox extension to "Edit CSS" which is really 
useful for tweaking this stuff visually.

Drop me a line if you can't find it.  I rather like what you did though...
