Public bug reported:

Having done some testing with the new skins feature on Mahara dev I thought it would be useful to be able to auto-resize the image to fit the background in a scalable way. Currently the options are to tile horizontally, vertically, both or none - but there are times when repeating the image doesn't look right, and background colours can be messy if the image used doesn't quite fit the available space. While the current options are fine if you are using a small image with repeatable edges (a technique I use for theme design for other sites) it doesn't work if you use a larger image that isn't designed with repeating in mind.
Thanks, Gordon.
