It's a gradient.

You then take a screenshot of the gradient, that's 1 pixel wide.

kk.

if you want a gradient, save it so the image is 1pixel wide and x pixels in height (obviously the height of the thing you want it for) then put repeat-x

i think anyway

:job2

I dont think you have to tell it to repeat it just does it automaticly

You just enter

HTML Code:

url(./dfdfd/abc.gif);

into the area you want the gradient to appear nothing else :) You dont have to have it 1 pixel in width its just most people do to stop others from stealing it though a print screen will do the same thing so the width thing doesnt mean you have too..

Too add onto hollywoods post

You can't make a gradient in admin CP but you can in like photoshop, fireworks etc.
Make the gradient in one of those programs, then save it ( the size doesn't need to be big.)

Upload the gradient picture either onto your server or upload it to imageshack, then put it in the correct section.

ERMMM whats the difference between what we posted and what you posted other than saying making it in photoshop.

also, i said 'i think'

plus, you have to put repeat-x if you dont want it repeating down aswell.

i do it 1px width because it saves on space and loads faster

Repeating down doesnt make much difference really see'ing as it wont be seen.

Yes what you're describing is called a gradient.
Free programs like GIMPshop support these if you want to make one.
