Any master page issues?

I have done about 30 pages of a new site. I just experimented with applying
a global theme that I downloaded from the net. It seemed to work as
described, applying colors, fonts etc to all pages.

Now I am thinking to create a Master Page so that I can have:

- A company logo (top-left)
- A horizontal navigation bar (top)
- A standard copyright footer (bottom)

I have just read through the help file on Master Pages.

Before I go and:

- Create a new master page with three 3 sections above
- Modify the page directive to include: MasterPageFile="~/Master.master"

Is there anything I may need to be aware of?
 
Not that it should stop you from using master pages, you just need to
realize that the whole master page will land into the content page. So if
you have relative url references in the master page, the starting point for
them will be the directory with the content page, not with the master page.
