To Rob and Steve,
Thank you for your responses. The problem with making it a background image
is it repeats itself instead of being one banner.

I like the cell idea, but I heard something about not using cells to make a
webpage. Is that a different type of cell? And if the cell is okay to use,
how do I get it to fill up three cells (top, left, and top-left)? Do I share
the borders?

Maybe a better question to ask, and I can take it from there, is....how do
people put a banner up on top of their webpage? It seems to me they just
fill a cell with their chosen picture. But if they want another picture
layered on top of that one, what do they do? Make the picture property
absolute instead of relative, and just drag it on top?

Sorry for so many questions, but thank you again for the responses.
