Thanks, my friend. I added a strike through of the error, a correction, and credited you.

I'm keeping it in for now because people have made some good jokes about the mistake in the comments and I want to keep that context.

You bet, Fun post and writeup, took me a bit down memory lane. I built several sites with nested table-based layouts, 1x1 transparent gif files set to strange widths to get layouts to force certain sizes. Little tricks with repeating gradient backgrounds for fancy 'beveled' effects. Under construction GIFs, page counters, GUESTBOOKS!, Photoshop drop-shadows on everything. All the things, fond-times. One or two I haven't touched in 20 years, but keep online for my own time-capsule memory :)

“Photoshop drop-shadows on everything.” I just time traveled for a few second there. Thank you for this comment.

Don’t forget to slice it for a 3x3. (And to recreate it all if you want to change your background color…)

Good old 9-slice scaling, I don't miss it for one bit.
