    And can help me? I tried changing it myself but i have two problems, one being the banner is bigger than my page and ends up stretching the page and two, it shows up pixelated for some people...i guess that's the same problem with the stretching.


    Can someone help me, please? If you need my header code and banner link I will gladly post it for you.

    Thank you!

    You cant make that banner 'stretchable'

    Its also too large on its own. 1200 wide means most people will have to scroll horizontally to see the page.

    it would have to be made different. -- there isnt anywhere on that image that will stretch and not look distorted.

    Ok - look at www.lincolnvscadillac.com


    See the header? Its actually 3 images.

    Left Image
    Right Image
    and the bridge image --

    The bridge image can be repeated as many times as necessary to fit different screen resolution widths... It fits inbetween the right and left and is consistant horizontally so that when you line them up - they appear as one image.

    See what I mean?

    Yeah that makes sense now all I need to do is figure out how to actually enter the code to make it come out looking correctly.
