Simon,

thanks for the kudos...
take the scaling to extremes: visit http://www.peepo.com and click on  
the chair, not it's border.

making one... well for the moment that's techie, though not awful...
It's not secret just hand coding, as the GUI tools aren't available.
requires php css svg etc...

for those interested in an authoring tool proposal:
"chalk" http://peepo.co.uk/peepo2/authoringTool.html
"kidscape" child friendly version of inkscape: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/170488

adding audio is not a problem, just takes time.
see http://www.peepo.co.uk using ff for best results
this is in around 6 European languages.

regards
