Can I make this object stick to the edge of the browser window somehow?
I want to use an intricate design(not necessarily the flourish seen in the video) to spice up the background, but don't know how to make it fit the browser without cutting a whole bunch off.
Acorn, gwpriester, ChrisM, Egg: what do I DO?

Just place the object on the pasteboard and set as sticky.

You could maybe make the top left part and bottom right part all the one image and then set it to pasteboard background and then set the pasteboard background to fill browser window.

Braden, make sure the Shapes do not touch the Page Background anywhere.
Make then horizontally the same level and they will move with your browser scroll.

P.S. When you are finished with this project you will have better context for discovering what you should have done overall. Sit down with the PDF Manual or Help and really go through all the features. You'll pick up so much more and it is far better than keeping on hitting brick walls.

I can see what you're trying to achieve, not the actual question, but the reason why you want to do it, you're trying to fill the empty space.
Usual disclaimer: different ideas, subjective, no right or wrong etc.
I think you should start by thinking 'what is this site about?' On the surface it seems to be construction in a good old solid wood. As much about values and craftsmanship than fancy tech and speed/money. The photos portray to me that whatever you're building is going to outlast several generations and give Stonehenge a run for it's money...your website should give that vibe too.
If you want a barn door you wouldn't use wrought iron, you'd whack up a solid one with hinges that laugh in the face of a tornado. So. Don't put little fancy bits to fill the spaces, throw a barn door at them. Use a textured background as xtom suggested.
A couple of your photos show porches that show strong solid elegance, choose a strong font for your header. Construct your site as you would construct one of your projects.
Lastly, as I argue with a lot of my customers, photos. Show me what you do, explaining is useless. I won't understand how you do it, I just want what I want because it's going to be mine.
