Community and *.tiki.org site organization

Suggestions:

1. Move the search box to the first position. Recent usability studies show that web users expect to see a SEARCH field in the top-right area.
2. Move the MENU to the left. Users who read left-to-right expect the menu on the left.

Some other critiques and suggestions....

• We have "Welcome to TikiWiki" 3 times on the home page. Does anyone else think this is overkill?
• Remove the "Help us with doc" plea... Or at least move it down. It should not be the first thing a new user sees.
• Remove the "Free software is good." Personally, I don't see what adds. We should mention somewhere on the Home page that TikiWiki is GPL software.

Great job so far. Luci did a great job on the site identity logo.
