Assemble ingredients and read recipe 2. Following recipe, combine lightly whisked result of graphics app with grated pre-prepared website 3. Bake on middle shelf of oven at Gas Mark 5 for 30 minutes (just kidding on that one - don't bake your website, or the divs will melt and the closing tags will fall off leaving you with a soggy mess and invalid code! ) NB: Ensure you are supervised by a responsible adult _____________________________ ~~ "A cruel god ain't no god at all" ~~

Another link that might be useful - Sliding Doors technique for background images - This is for when you want multiple large background images sliding against one another for liquid layouts. _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to womble)
