Tables: use divs instead. Table-based layout is passe _unless_ you actually
use it in its proper, standard-tight manner, which is to represt a table of
data.

To exchange frames: use server-side instantiation of menus. Do not make
menus a separate page, ever.

Graphic links: use text if possible. This saves bandwidth, caters better for
browsers that are text- or voice-based (exception: the alt attribute),
allows text to be scaled (text size in image is immutable), etc. (plenty of
literature on this)
