Tables at difficult beasts, they're built to expand with their content.

If you want an image that is in a table cell to (appear) to expand
over the top of (and outside the bounds of) the cell then you'll have
to something like:

  - duplicate the image element
  - insert the duplicate image outside the table
  - position the duplicate image absolutely over the top of the cell/image
