Header for Comment section question Options

[shynomi]

I have a client that wants the comment header to stretch the full length of the middle section of the layout (the black section)

www.myspace.com/frucatestpage3

here's what they said (quote)

"i thought it would look cool if the only parts of the image that had a fade on them where the top and the bottom, and have the sides go all the way to the end of the back middle strip."

it's 826px wide, how can i make that image stretch to each side?
i put the code for the comments section below:
