I'v seen websites with endless image banners, for example , the banner keeps going all the way to the right of the screen, if u minimize or maximize it wont make a difference. Is that some type of trick? or how to make an endless banner without buttom scroll bar. it keeps extending or shrinks when u move the windows box.
Am a newb i know.
Just a question am very interested to find out about

A banner of that sort is really more like a header. One thing you could do is look at the source code of the page to see how they do it. I imagine that there are different ways. One way would be to have an image as a part of the header with a solid background color or one that fades into a solid color at the right. Then make the rest of the header out of text with a background color that matches the color of your image at its right hand edge.

Those kinds of websites are most likely using CSS. If you have an image you can make the image pretty big like 300 high by 1400 wide (Or what ever you want the image to be), you want the width to be pretty large so it will stretch along most resolutions. Like this guy did (http://www.northcolour.com/), the CSS would look like:
body {
background-image:url(path to image);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
Other wise if you have a background image you want to repeat like (http://www.someguynamedcarl.com/) you would slice up the image and add it to your css code like this:
body {
background-image:url(path to image);
background-repeat:repeat-x;
}
If your new to web design I would suggest learning CSS.
Like this guy did (http://www.northcolour.com/)It also fades into black.

thats a nice site
Agreed -- the designer is a genius. Don't think much of the coder though.

At least it validates (http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.northcolour.com%2F).
Some people like XHTML. Heck, even the W3C uses a XHTML Doctype.
