Hi,

And thanks for your work on this. Please pretend I don't know anything
about web, standards, and best practices.

We could just make the gradient image take the whole horizontal space,
that seems to work just fine on this 1920px wide screen.

Just set background-size to 100% and disabled the repeat mode, see
attached patch.
