Hi Skye (ever been to that lovely Scottish island? ;o),
As for Background repetition, there is a css definition which you can
set on the element containing the background image:
#idOfMyPresentationContainer {background-repeat:none;}
...and it shouldn't repeat, neither in x nor in y.
If you're having troubles identifying the correct div-Element, use
Firebug (for example).
