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).

min-height: is a valid css property but IE<7 does not recognise it.

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. Work beckons...
