Moin,

I don't see the point in that... I also did not like the big images on the
main page, but there's a totally easy solution:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
.mainmenu h1 {
    font-size: 14px;
}

.mainmenu img {
    width: 109px;
    height: 100px;
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Either you put that directly in pi.css, or you create a file inc/local.css
and add this line to your inc/local.php:

$pageheaders[151] = "<link rel=stylesheet type='text/css' href='inc/local.css' 
/>";
