I did a similar shadow effect at www.mytelevision.com
its a semi-fluid design, really clever.

make the header graphic 780 wide

put
<table ..><tr><td background="shadowleft.gif" width=20></td><td>

as the 1st line and

</td><td background="shadowright.gif" width=20></td></tr></table>

at the end. That puts the 2 shadows all the way up the page.

Now you have a big 820 wide page in high res and a full screen 780 in low res.
As you shrink the window near 800 wide the shadows dissapear and you get
a different looking page especially for low res.
