Can't you just use a photo-editing package to make the image the same size as the table???

(Advice from a non-HTML techie, it'll never be accepted :D).

Do you want a picture in the center of a cell? But because the pic is too small for the cell it automatically repeats itself so you just want one copy of the pic in the center of the cell?

No, you need to apply "background-repeat: no-repeat;" as a CSS style.

What is it you are trying to do? Do you want a different picture is each cell of the table?

If you are doing this why not try it this way
eg









First Row
background="DIFFERENT IMAGE NAME">
Second
Row


No doubt the spacing will all disapear but hopefully you see what I mean. If this isn't what you mean then explain it a little more please.
