Hey designers

Whats the secret to sizing an image to make it a background with tables?

I've spent the last hour trying to take a huge picture file and sliving it and tabling it to be a background for a page. But I can't figure out how to size it right, its either HUGE and has scroll bars and doesn't fit into the page, or its too small and looks shitty.

Link to what you're trying to do, your description makes little sense.

I am not sure of any examples, but let me try to explain it a different way.

Say I have a Photoshop file that is, oh, 3500x4500 pixels. I want to make it the background of a webpage, but since I don't know if the surfer is using a 800x600 resolution or a 1024x768 resolution or whatever, I want it to be the background and automatically fit the screen size without scrolling or having blank space.

How would I do that?

Ya want a cheap shot way? I guess ya will need a table 100% in width. Insert the background as a flash object. Set the flash object 100% width as well. Use Div layer over the table?

However...
Uhh What ya got there sounds about as dysfunctional as a titless whore in a cat house.
