Take a look at the actual image:

It's not really popping out -- the background is really just part of the image.
So the thing to do is to incorporate the background into your title/header image, and make the main graphic element go beyond the fake border of your main area. :)
I think it is the angle at which the image of the bear was taken ie from slightly above.
The image also stands out a bit because of how the image was lit.
If your asking how does the image sits in front and over laps the background the the answer is it is a compostion of several images,the bear,the backgorund colours etc.The bear has probably been cropped from a studio shot and a drop sahdow has been applied to the bear which makes it look like its casting a shadow onto the background.
Basically the page designer designed the background image ie the blues and whites and the text then dropped the image of the bear onto it, probably in a programme like Macromedia Fireworks.I think it is possible to do this with Photoshop but never tried.

here are some text effect tutorials.Another way to do something similar is with .png files that support transparancy. (Even better than .gif in that regard - no edge mess.) But I'm not sure if IE7 is on the boat with that one yet. (Works well with Firefox, and I believe Opera as well.) Do the other stuff as described before, but with transparent .png you have more freedom not worrying about trying to match the background color. (Like the Wings3D critter I put in my sig.)
