I hate designers!

Hey guys i've got a problem that I just can't figure out a solution for, i've attached a screenshot of the design. Basically there are various textboxes arranged in two columns, but their backgrounds (glows/curves behind the boxes) are causing me problems.

The width of the design with the curves is larger than my target resolution (1024x768). I've tried playing around with margins but it makes the design generally very inflexible (all boxes have to be non-expandable that way). Is there anyway anyone can think doing this without
a) having the minimum with of the website at 1200px
b) positioning the boxes absolutely

can you give me the link to this website please? and maybe post some code?

I don't really understand what you want... can you make the images of the curves and whatever slightly narrower? then make the boxes smaller to suit?

Well the designer made it too big and so I wanted to have the white boxes inside the 1024 boundary/box and the backgrounds outside so they could be visible if someone had a browser with a higher resolution. But I've been trying for near on a day now and have exhausted my html/css knowledge!
