Newbie Alert! Which Milonic menu should I use?

Hello all! I've just recently learned style sheets and am now moving on to learning about dhtml menus. I have an image map header with five navigation areas that I would like to use dhtml menus for. Problem is, I don't know which dhtml menu will work best for my needs -- the fixed position, the positioned by images, or the image map menu? Or is there another option?

I need to position the menus absolutely based on the map coordinates. Here's my sample page:

The five rollover spots are Resources, Services, About Us, How Do I, and Faculty Corner.

I originally put rollover menu codes into the htm file using Dreamweaver, but as you can see from our working home page, the code is pretty ugly. But this is the effect we'd like to get:

I would really appreciate some expert advice on which menu would work best for what I'm trying to do. I've been reading a lot on Milonic's web site as well as the *many* other sites out there.

Also, how long does it usually take to get an OK'd free license for an academic institution?

Thanks so much for your time!
