A background-image can't stretch so most people make one wide enough for most resolutions with top center an dthen code the background-color the same as the edges of the image so that it just continues the same color.

 

You can make a normal image stretch using position: absolute or position: fixed with width: 100%. left: 0; right: 0; which ties it to both sides. If you don't state a height this will adjust in proportion to the width, but in a narrow high window you will see a space below the image. See this example and drag th ewindow wider and narrower:-

I would tend to agree...although as a designer and user of the internet on a slower connection, you should remember that large images as backgrounds are passe and should be avoided to reduce load lags....just saying....
