Thanks. I will search for ways to place the text on top of the image. 
Perhaps, by putting it as position absolute, inside the same container as the 
image.

Ok. Indeed, we must be careful to, when the user resizes, that white text 
should never pass that yellow-gold shape, and the same goes for footer.

Thanks a lot, again. 

I will now deal with it and test a lot. :)

 Please note:
I don't care if IE7 and earlier versions aren't targeted.
A mobile version was not purchased by the client so, we don't have
that need here.

Assuming your fluid layout is taking tablets in the mix the images
need to fold from a full window to 1024 [tablet horizontal] and 768
[tablet vertical].
One approach you might consider for the large yellow-gold shape is to
set as a foreground image:
img{display:block;width:100%;height:auto;}
And superimpose the white text on top of that image.
+1 for taking into consideration that white text on a white page will
be unreadable for users who employ a healthy minimum font-size or
those who may scale the fonts.
