It doesn't have to be, but it's very hard to get it to flow without a gradient bottom. And the Twitch.TV size of a streaming page is 1600 length, and 1900 for width because not most have bigger than that, so they won't read whatever is off their page.

I spent a while working on the background, mostly to get the pattern to fit almost seamlessly.
I have a few questions:
1. Whatdya think?
2. (requires a little backstory) My friend has a lower resolution screen, and when he looked at it he said that the text gets cut off by a LOT, so should I just take it off the background and instead put it in the header?
