Here is how I did it on http://www.dreamnet.com/samantha/samhome.htm I just used a style sheet and the image not to repeart and fixed the the position of the image using percentages so it would move with the browser. The I made the background the same color I used in the image. The Style sheet code is below.

body { background-color: #DAD1BF; color: #FFFFFF; background-image: url(images/bkgrd_sam.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed; background-position: 80% 90%}

Dear Vanilla,

The only other thing I can think of is one giant image but that will be to inefficent for the web I'm afraid. You should really start learning CSS because that is where all the real control in web pages these days take place.

It's really not that hard especially if you using a design tool like Dreamweaver.

Sorry I don't have a better answer,
Rob

it all depends on what exactly you are trying to accomplish

I'm assuming your putting the image in a table. Make the adjustments for your image and this should work.
