I would not scale the whole component, just the backgroundImage, then size the three pieces appropriately.

It's got: [ header] [text box] [footer] There's an image behind the whole thing; the image can scale9, but I'm afraid that the textarea might get messed? If this component is loading into a main application, then will the: a) image scale9 correctly and b) the textarea fits within the correct (now scaled) area?
