Fixed background image size

    Hey All,

    I've built a site for a local company, and they would like a fixed background image.

    After looking over the analytics, I see that of the almost 500 visitors in the last month, many have big screens - there were more 2500x1200 than 800x600. So I would like to make the image fill all resolutions.

    However, I don't want to plunk a massive image back there...for obvious reasons.

    Is there a way around this? Also, is it possible to "slice" the image - have the center where the site's body sits be transparent? I tried to think of a way to do this...would a width 100% div right after the body tag with the image centered do this?

    Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    There is a parameter called Absolute. You can try that.

    either in CSS or image itself
