I am a new convert to css positioning and my second project is proving a
challenge. Please help me from going back to tables!

I found some code that created a vertical and horizontal result that works
well in IE6. Firefox seems to be one pixel out with the background but
that's good enough. However the designer is viewing this on a MAC and
reports that in IE it cuts off the top half of the main image (screen shot
attached). Is this a browser incompatibility issue that I'll have to live
with or have I done something stupid?

That is common problem whan using negative top margin and page is not
high enaugh. Use absolute positioning with auto margins (works in Opera)
or display:table;+vertical align (not for IE), or forget whole idea.
