filling in the title line with a color made a big difference - the background image does not need to be everywhere - it gets too busy I found from my own playing around with my profile. Next to the background image field is a "repeat' field. I set mine on 'both'. This repeats the image much like your desktop image can be repeated or 'tiled'. That is not a suggestion, but an FYI for you - I think this is very nice as it is at the moment. It takes patience to get your page just the way you are happy with it and now that I have sort of conquered the challenges I will probably change mine more often. You did a nice job, Ann, very nice.
