Hi,

Since that took a while I have done some research.
Flipping it seems impossible so I went for the 100% width, maintain  
aspect ratio idea.
The answer isn't great here too but there is some hope in the way of  
CSS3 background-size: 100%; (that will keep the aspect ratio). Only  
supported by Safari, there is a firefox one (-mozilla blah blah blah)  
but I couldn't get it to work. It'll need javascript but I couldn't  
even find an answer with that that didn't involve adding wrappers,  
even tables!. Case closed :-(

BR, CB
