How about you take a look first, and then post instead of double posting like you did in this whole thread.

And i'm sure you've heard of the edit button here. Use it !

full graphics, buttons, and site template (one page) you can add content yourself

I'm in a 1920x1200 resolution, the background actually does stretch to some extent, but then begins to repeat. I looked at it in IE and Firefox and got the same results as the screenshot below indicates. Might want to take that into consideration.

One site I use a lot when dealing with browser incompatibilities is QuirksMode.

Christina, I found this to be a problems as well. However I don't want to make the picture any bigger b/c the file would be huge and take longer to download. I am workin on a way to 'stretch' the background now, but am hitting dead ends.

I'd try a mixture of absolute and relative positioning to design the layout to work with the background background, something to the effect of:

body {
background-color : White;
background-image: url(images/g.GIF);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
}

Here's a quick reference on that:

or you may try reducing the background image in size and using as a background in a smaller table that doesn't take up the whole page and therefore wouldn't tile no matter how large the resolution.
