Can I repeat a part of an image [which it's in a CSS sprite image] in the background ?!
like for example :
background-position : -13px top ; background-repeat : repeat-y ;
because I got the whole sprite image repeated ...

If you place your images side by side in a really wide sprite you'll be able to use repeat-y. If you need to use repeat-x you can place the images in the sprite above each other.

what do you mean by "wide" in pixels ?! – Waseem Apr 06 '11 at 14:13

@Waseem assuming you have 20 images in the sprite each with a 100px width, then the sprite would be 200px wide. – Gareth Apr 06 '11 at 14:23
