Background/Marquee

1) For the following site Wallpaper.com (<a class="postlink" href="http://www.wallpaper.com">http://www.wallpaper.com</a>) notice how there's a white background and then that brown background on top of the white? My question: is this just a background image that the creators created so all they had to insert was the <body background="xxx.gif"> tag? Or is this DHTML? 
 
2) When I insert the <marquee> tag, I have images scrolling (I have about 10-15 images at the top of the page scrolling), how do I make it so that after the first cycle has finished (I have it set to continuos), how do I make it so that there's no big white gap between cycles? Thanks.The brown color is from a table. 
 
e.g. 
copy paste below into a page and view it in your browser. 
 
 
<HTML> 
<HEAD></HEAD> 
<BODY> 
 <H1>THIS IS A TABLE TEST</H1> 
 <H3>We can use tables to create the effect</H3> 
 
 
 
 
 
 
<table width=80% style="background-color: yellow"> 
<tr> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
</tr> 
<tr> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
<td>Here is some text</td> 
</tr> 
</table> 
 
</body> 
</HTML> 
 
 
Or use CSS: 
 
<HTML> 
<HEAD> 
<STYLE TYPE="CSS/TEXT"> 
#brown { width: 400px; 
height: 800px; 
position: absolute; 
top: 150px; 
left: 25px; 
background-color: yellow; 
} 
body { background-color: white; } 
</STYLE> 
</HEAD> 
<BODY> 
 <H1>THIS IS A TABLE TEST</H1> 
 <H3>We can use tables to create the effect</H3> 
 
 
 
 
<DIV ID="brown"> 
Here is another example of a box using CSS. 
</DIV> 
</body> 
</HTML>Thanks. Before I had posted that message I looked at the source code and I saw the table tags... I was trying to figure out where the heck the tables were

... thanks for clarifying that up for me. Any clue about the marquee?
