This is awesome!
One suggestion: It would be better if the user could click ANYWHERE in the ribbon to activate it, that way it acts more like the native widget instead of just a hyperlink.
To do this:
1) Apply “display: block” style to the A tag.
2) Apply the styles for the background image (including the padding-left) to the A tag instead of the DIV.
@Bryan,
It’s taken a while, but I’ve finally modified the bar.css to make the entire bar clickable.
Take a look, and thanks for the suggestion!

I would also move the FF recommendation above the IE7 one (and put a warning about how bad IE7 standards support is, as well). Really, Opera, Safari & Chrome should also be listed before you list IE7.
Great work here.
Nice 🙂
