I didn't offer up this answer off the bat, 'cuz it sorta side-steps the
problem, but here ya go.

Confine all your pages to a certain page height. Use JavaScript to determine
the size of the browser window and place your image in the dead center. Have
no scroll bars in the highest screen resolution. Some kinds of sites (online
apps, financial) work very well with this method of no scroll bars. Some
don't. It's a major design issue, but your site can look VERY sharp if done
properly.
