Yes, I wasn't able to figure out a way to setup the background images
(to be stationary) without forcing a 100px margin on the left side of
the screen. My next theme will hopefully be more compatible with
smaller screens. Anyway, the most important part of the design process
is to know your audience - and I knew that the only people that would
visit my blog where my friends and designers/programmers with larger
than 1024+ screens.

Yep, until JS fixes that whole "you can't change a URL from JS" thing
it looks like I will have to break down and try one of those hash
managers again.
Tell me, why can't you change the URL dynamically? Why is it such a
danger? (aside from the aforementioned problem)
