    Valeria, you're right. The problem is that the masthead is only 800px wide and an extension (shown below) has been added on the right for bigger screens.



    This extension is actually the background image of the page, that's set to repeat horizontally, thus giving the illusion that the AW banner is wider than it really is.

    When we use the fixed background code, we're replacing this background image with our own. Without the famous extension, it looks like the right end of the AW banner "disappeared".

    Here's a fix. What this does is place a patch up there to hide the hole... literally! The number in red may have to be changed a bit to get the image to align properly. (Don't change the URL.) I hope this helps.

    <div style="background-image: url('http://www.ancientworlds.net/aworlds_media/ibase_1/Special/Masthead/MastheadRepeater112.gif'); background-repeat: repeat-x; width: 1300px; height: 120px; position: absolute; top: -112px; left: 0px"></div>
