How can you stretch your gradients vertically?

[mkdevo]

hello all,

i'm having a problem in some sections where the length of a section which has a repeating vertical gradient background is longer than the actual gradient. this causes the gradient to stop short, and then the background color is displayed, and it doesn't look good at all.

is there a way to stretch the gradient vertically? i've attached an image as in example.. thanks in advance!

(while we're at it, how do i expand the width of that PM Reply box??)

You actually need to set the background color to the color of the last pixel (or one of them) of the background image.
