I have seen quite a few rounded corner boxes using CSS or javascript and solid colors, but I guess the image based boxes aren't even discussed any more. At least I am having difficulty finding any.
The shell modification I am trying to do blends the panel background into a module background and has no module top or borders. This is an example:
http://www.enterprisejm.com/images/share/page_module1.jpg
The modules I plan to use it on are the articles and main content of various pages. Right now there are limited options for display of the modules, either no module shell, but the background is too dark, or the standard module shell with 2 different background choices. I want to have one more option that is a cross between the no shell look and one of the shell backgrounds.
How the no shell option looks: http://www.thefloorpro.com/about.php

Can I do this using all divs? I either have to do the styling in-line or add new CSS to the site through the style manager. I would like to be able to position the text so that it slightly overlaps the dark borders as you see in the example above. Do I slice the image into 8 pieces (4 corners, 4 sides) or use much fewer, but also much larger images that will allow for whole page module widths?
I hope you can help me figure this out. Thank you for your time.
