hi there, shouldn't you concider making the header image a background image
for your <body> tag, thus allowing your users to reseize the content that
way your main div that is smaller would fit in these small screens (now
most of the users have a least 1024 px wide sceens, for computers at least)
try to use your "header" image as a background one,centered ?
