"Nifty Corners" provides rounded corners without using any images.  I  
haven't explored the disadvantages of using this method, though.  See:

Well, if you're using server side scripting you could make the rounded  
corners on he hoof.  One way is to create a large circle and reduce it  
to the desired size - this will give you nice anti-aliasing.  Then chop  
the circle into quarters and you have your corners.
