I went to change the background to an image (repeated) and I have yet to add code that has in any way even affected my template. Curently I have this code: Code: head { background-image: url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v605/ashleystarfighter/002.gif); background-repeat: repeat; background-position: top center; background-color: transparent; } as far as I can tell this should work. If you have any comments, or even better if you have some source from a blogger hosted blog with a working background image, post away, please.

Why get the poor guy more confused because you don't know?? PiXiE Posted at 5:32 pm on June 8, 2006 Code: body {   background-image: url('http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v605/ashleystarfighter/002.gif');   background-repeat: repeat;   } (Just copy and paste that code where your other code is, and it will work.) Your code was applying the background the "head". Notice the first word in my code is "body". 2nd problem was forgetting the single quotes around the URL. 3rd error: if you just want it to repeat, you don't need background-position. Background-color doesn't need to be there, either, if the image will be repeated over the entire background. Let me know if you have more questions!

Usually you have to put ("http:....jpeg") I have no clue if the quotes do anything, but it is worth a shot. I thought about that too, but then I was like.. When has the internt ever been wrong, thanks Ill try it. the real anti christ Posted at 7:44 pm on May 19, 2006 I will try removing the space. I think it automaticaly removes them though...

BUT, depending what editor your using, that looks correct. Sometimes extra spaces might skrew it up. Artistic Drain Posted at 7:41 pm on May 19, 2006 Hmm.
