Welcome, Chris.
Regarding the flickering of that Design Resources
image, I believe it's a symptom of not having specified a height for that
element. Hence, if you change its CSS to:
#resource {
background-image: url(images/design.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center top;
padding-top:25px;
height: 25px;
}
This will remove the flickering. This
flickering doesn't happen only with images; it can occur with text,
too.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
SomeNewKid
