In that case your best bet is probably to create a page template file and
render your Views programatically.  Unfortunately, I'm not developing with
Drupal 6 yet, and haven't checked out the API changes in Views 2 so I can't
really advise further.  In D5, you would do something like "print
views_build_view('embed', views_get_view('yourviewname'), $view_args, FALSE,
$limit);" and that may or may not still work in D6.
