Unless the area that you're trying to lay an image over maps to the same size as the tiles for the zoom level you're at, you're out of luck.

You might be able to use a PNG image as a frame and place it with CSS to 'mask' out the areas you don't like (but I'm not fully sure if this is in adherence with the Google terms of use...check that out first).

Your other option would be to create an image bigger than the area revealed at the zoom level you're viewing.

Cheers.
