Messing about with boats
Pre 2006

Information
Just another simple demonstration. Hover over the picture, or the words, to get a 100% zoom on the picture.
If you click the text you will get another 50% zoom. With the added feature of a sun and cloudless sky.
This is all achieved by using a single repeated boat 'css image' sized using 'em' values and then scaled up and down using a change to the 'master' value.
Look at the source to see the CSS.
Works ok in IE6, Mozilla / NN7.1 and Firefox, but Opera doesn't quite make it.
Update
Only works in IE. Not sure why Firefox etc have stopped using em values less than 0.5em.
Images at various em sizes
0.1em
80.25em
30.5em
71em
