[hobbit] Skinning BB

[Michael Lowery]

If speed is the problem, I know that the pages load extremely slow if
you are going through a PIX or Cisco router when "fixup protocol http"
or "inspect iosfw http" are enabled due to the javascript menu.  Turning
that off will greatly speed up the loading of the hobbit pages.

I'm sure someone has modified it to fit in with their local setups.

"less graphics" ??? The entire "gifs" directory in Hobbit is a whopping
141 KB of data. This is very little by any current web-standard. So if
you want to get rid of all the graphics, you have something else in
mind.

For a complete elimination of the graphics, you will need to hack the C
code - specifically, bbdisplay/pagegen.c and lib/*log.c . And the
templates.
