Which isn't a bad thing because if you stretch your background it will always look mis-shapen and pixelated with someones resolution.
Stretching != cool :p


i hate repeating myself :dodgy:

RE: background stretch
it can't be done indeed. The only thing you can do is depending on the user's resolution replacing the backgroundimage with another one with a different resolution.

Replacing the background image is the best thing you can do, just resize your image to the most popular sizes like: 800x600, 1024x720, 1280x960, 1600x1200 and replace the image that is closest to the users resolution.

CSS3 will let you set the size of the image to, but CSS3 isn't released yet.
