Your posting is encouraging that there is a way out of this. However, my image is a bit busier than the example you used and might not work. What can be done to make my images be a particular percentage value but prevent them from stretching too far? In this example the 2 corner images are made for 800x600 to 1200x800 layouts. wildgasmasks.com/wgm2/

Wasn't aware that backgrounds were resizable on the HTML and Body elements. Not exactly sure what yet, but I'm sure that will be useful for something. I need to have a think about where.

As is, placing your left and right header images inline, rather than a background.
