    I don't know how myself, but why not just combine the two images together, make them one big image side by side using GIMP or something?

    you could place them in divs and use z index property and place everything on top etc

    As was said already ... I think the simplest will be just to use a graphics package to merge the two images and then use the resulting image as the background. You could also write a script to merge two images via PHP ...cache the resulting image and output that if you'll be requiring merged images on a regular basis ... but in terms of CPU usage it'll be quite intensive doing it on the fly especially if the site is busy

    otherwise google might help :) worth playing around but being standard compliant or render properly on all browsers is still quesitonable.

    I'm sorry but what exactly are you looking for? Image rollover? Gif animations? If you can explain more then we'll be able to provide an easy solution to your problem.
