Hi guys.
I'm currently in the process of designing my own wesite in XHTML and CSS. Things are going well and I'm getting great tips from some of the guys in the Web Development Section:

However, I'm a bit stuck and have a question that might be better answered over here. I want to create a background using the cheat method where you can have an equal length main section and sidebar. Now i know how to do this in the sense that i create an image about 760px wide for example and only 2px in height then just repeat-y.
the problem i'm having however is that i'm looking to create a background that incorporates shadows, like i've noticed on many sites, adiumx.com being an example.
this is a direct link to their main background image:

notice the shadow effect on the left and right of the background. I'm wondering how this is achievable? Could any of you guys possibly give me some tips in this area and or point me in the right direction, regarding maybe some online tutorials showing how to do this?
I have photoshop cs and am in the process of learning it, but my book doesn't give an indication on how to achieve this.
thanks again.
