To keep the download time to a minimum, yet keep a rich feel to a Web page, people often use a decorative background tile. The problem with background tiles, however, is correctly preparing graphics so that they match when placed on top of the tile. Because you cannot predict where the tile will fall on the Web page, people often assume that they need to use rough-edged aliased graphics. This exercise, however, shows how to prepare soft-edged, anti-aliased graphics that will match your tile.
