Well, yes, putting your text in a separate frame on plain white
background is *one* solution. It's a bit of a drastic change from what
you originally posted here.

I've put an example of what I was thinking of at

  http://www.econym.demon.co.uk/profd/

(Or there will be an example there, as soon as the web server refreshes
it. It shouldn't take long.)

Notice that this looks quite like what you originally posted (except I
had to use one of my own tiles in the background because I couldn't
extract a tileable one from your original image) but the various
components automatically adjust to sensible positions when the size of
the screen changes. Try un-maximising your browser window and adjusting
the size. Everything stays in the same relative position and things only
go wrong when the window is smaller than the width of the title image.
If there were more text, the bottom graphics would move down in the same
way.

It's all done with tables, rather than frames.
