Oh, there went something definetly wrong :-). Reading my response again I
see, what this misunderstandig could be about. I'll try again:

You are absolutly right, it doesn't look imposing. But I wonder if it is
possible to make it look cute AND imposing - or is this a contradiction in
itself? Well, perhaps "imposing" is indeed the wrong word (it's what my
dictionary told me is the expression for the German "eindrucksvoll,
imponierend"), is "impressive" better? Or yes - "awesome" might be the word
as you suggested :-)

Sorry, if i pulled the wrong trigger with my lousy attemps to use the
English language. I'm familiar with most of the everydays abbreviations and
I thing I got you right. You native english speaker have probably a hard
time with (some) of us non-natives sometimes. :-)
