Hi,

how do I add a background image to JA Kyanite II?

I have been tring to edit the template.css file but for some reason it is not working. I have checked on forums etc and used certain methods but I cannot get it to work. Am I missing something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

In template.css around line 22 you will find


body#bd {
background:none repeat scroll 0 0 #F6F6F6;
color:#333333;

}

Edit the background code as required. I think the template would need more modification to look good though.

Hi, Thanks for coming back to me. I actually found this on line 43. I found the following code: body#bd { background: #ffffff; color: #333; } and then changed it to this:

body#bd <div style=”background-image: url(‘images/background.jpg’)”>

This has not added a background image though…infact nothing has changed. Do you have any other suggestions?

Many Thanks

Hi Marcg313,
Try your code with

body#bd {
background: url('images/background.jpg') repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
color:#333333;
}
Please make sure your image url.
Hope that helps

Hi thanks for that it seemed to work. It does look a bit of a mess at the moment: http://109.75.168.82/~pressure/new/

Do you know what size i should make this or if there is anything else I need to change so this will display correctly?

Thanks in advance

Dear marcg313,

You can try with this style

body#bd {
background:url(“http://109.75.168.82/~pressure/new/images/background.jpg”) repeat scroll center top transparent;
color:#333333;
}

I hope that would help
