A wide (1100+) image with the 'visible' part offset to one side on an
'invisible' (white) background.
Styled with 'body {background-position: center top;}' it'll stay put
until the window-width becomes so narrow that the fixed-width elements
create a scrollbar, and since background-images don't affect the
container (body) or create scrollbars, it'll create a nice illusion.
They just forgot to test the design thoroughly across browser-land, so
the illusion is slightly broken in Opera, where 'padding:0' on body is
needed.
regards
Georg
