Paul,

It's just a jpg file. It may just be that the colors stretch together without looking TOO bad. I'll install IE7 and start checking out the issues ASAP. I'll also take a look at the expand to screen width only issue, but I'll assume that will throw using ems for box model sizing out the window.

Thanks for the input.

It seems to break apart a little in IE 7 but as you know works fine in Firefox 2.

Although I'm fond of absolute zoom like this, I get a lot of push-back from collaborators and clients because it triggers a horizontal scrollbar at high zoom. (I don't see anyone complaining about Word, PDF, Excel, and other document formats doing this, but maybe I get the push because I'm more accessible than Bill...) My compromise is to make layouts that expand up to but not exceeding window width, such as this http://i-edu.org/ and our own site http://juniperwebcraft.com/

I don't generally make images expand because they tend to shrink and expand badly, but your large image in this demo does OK. Did you save it in any special way for this purpose?

Regards,

Paul
