Featuring an orange and tan kaleidoscope border on the side or the top, these two background graphics will make your web pages pop! I started this background from a funky sunset photograph that I cropped and then applied a kaleidoscope filter over and over again until I got the graphic that I liked. Then I sampled parts of the kaleidoscope to get the light-colored background used for the rest of the graphic. The first background made was the top border in 100x3000 pixels. I turned this graphic 90 degrees and cropped it narrower to create the side border background.
The top border background sample page shows a fictitious company's main page just to show you how the border incorporates the company's name which I made as a .gif with a transparent background. You can do the same or leave the border area blank and start your content below it. Since the border is only 100 pixels wide, in the side border background I made the text smaller at 10 points so that the links would just fit. I also added margins of zero width to make the table hug the left side more closely.
Enough chatter about these two graphics. View and click on the thumbnail images to get the sample pages where you can proceed to download the graphic. The sample pages will open in a new window after you enter the username and password provided.

Also coming later this week is a nested tables set using the same kaleidoscope graphic as a tile and some background tiles in colors sampled from the image.
