background problem...HELP!!

I have a client who wants more than anything to 
have a background that is a fade from top to bottom.
The fade is a gradient from white to blue.
At the "bottom" of said page they want a shadowed skyline
image of  a generic cityscape.
I have the fade working...http://www.interaccess.com/options/index.html

BUT, I have a skyline.gif that is TOO large to load-
AND it looks like it CAN'T be transparent against the BLUE text.

Any suggestions??
TIA
Steve
