Can anyone point me in any direction to where I can find out how to slice a website layout so that it will keep going down with the content? If you could it'd be much appreciated!

Here is a Tutorial about slicing and I am guessing that you would want to place one of the slices onto the page as a background image, then use an html/css technique known as "faux columns' to cause it to repeat down the page for the length of the longest column and the footer. Several good sites have info about the "faux coumns" approach.
A really good site to start with is A List Apart.

Exactly what I needed, thanks for the links. I'm going to go try it now and hopefully get a good result!

Also, little tip:
Sometimes it's good to only slice up the areas you need, for example links and where your text goes,

But, sometimes it's good to slice up an even box around a link/text, so that it can be stretched easily.
