Okay..I just got another thought...if i was to make a page in DreamWeaver for example, is ther a way to make a background comprised of one image but that image does not tile but fill the page?<br />
<br />
I am looking at different avenues here so forgive me if I sound too naive.<!--content-->You can do that with Notepad. It doesn't matter what editor you use. It's just text files.<br />
<br />
Look into the CSS background properties.<br />

<br />
What you want is something like this:<br />
<br />
body { background: #a1b2c3 url(Path/toPic.gif) no-repeat }<br />
<br />
-- ADDED --<br />
Sorry! I can't read. Please disregard my chatter.<!--content-->not easily no - there are so many different resolutions and window sizes to cater for that you'd never get them all. Some people have big buttons (back and stop etc) which take up more space at the top of the screen than the small (or text ones), and that can throw the height of your page off by anything up to 200 pixels. Then there's the favourites bar which can go up to 50% width of the screen, not to mention differnet resolutions.<br />
<br />
In short, one of the reasons that very few websites (and even fewer well designed ones) use backgound images that attempt to fill the screen. You can guarantee that if you were to get it looking good on your computer, it would be nigh on impossible to replicate it somewhere else.<!--content-->Okay...thanks.<!--content-->
