	Nice mockups!  A few comments.  :^)  First, the foot should be in
a box which has a border.  This is to reinforce the idea that it is a
button.  (And it should have a little arrow pointing down so people can
tell it's a menu.  MS has this in their style guide...  When a button
opens a menu, it should have a little arrow pointing down.  They, of
course, don't follow that guideline, but I think it is very helpful.)
Second, the foot should be darker.  It's a little invisible right now.
Maybe dark blue?  Also, there should be a tooltip for the foot.

	In other words, I *love* the foot.  I just want to make sure
people dont' miss it.  Maybe I'll fix your image and post the results.
:^)
