Have you considered making the shadow a part of the original image. The KISS rule applies here. Given it's position you could take a screen snapshot including the edge of the background and resave it as a jpg. 24/32 bit PNG's are not really web friendly (very slow on dialup). > > > Because the my sites type renders different on certain screens > resolutions, where the image on the right has an absolute position, > the contents section's height gets very small, almost allowing the png > file to touch the footer.

If you set your body font as a percentage then use EM's to scale it (where 1em = 100%) you will resolve many font issues. Using percentages throughout can result in trouble with nested font scaling (you get 90% of 90%). To be honest i haven't taken the time to check if this is your issue.
