Barbara, is the background here supposed to have one eye just under the 
Discovery Services banner and another centered eye between Skip Trace and 
Asset Search?

I went and took a peek as soon as I saw this post since Netscape Navigator 
is notorious about ignoring any type of BG properties either in the body 
tag or through CSS.

Nope -- the eyes stay put. The site is not scrolling over the background. 
And, I think you would have to get pretty far into CSS to do the scrolling 
you describe. And, if it works, it won't work the same between NN and IE. 
I'm sure you will get other reports from Opera users too.
