Posted: March 8th 2008, 8:22 am Post subject: Adding a Background image

I am using subsilover as a basis for my forum and have tried countless things to change the background colour to an image and also the original white bit in subsilver around the forums. Please help as no matter what I have tried it just willnot change from the colours I have.
Thanks in advance

Code:

scrollbar-face-color: #f7eeee;
scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFFFF;
scrollbar-shadow-color: #f7eeee;
scrollbar-3dlight-color: #F5E9E9;
scrollbar-arrow-color: #800000;
scrollbar-track-color: #fbf5f5;
scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #cc9999;
background-image: url(images/cutecolorschoresbg3.gif);

You will need to add the last line above to your .css file as well as the above edit in your overall_header.tpl

Ah there goes my incompetence, I thought you simply modified it on the admin page where it asks for body background. I also changed the file so that the new background is called images/body_background

Now I changed the body-background to a new image, but the new image does not take, I just get a grey-black background.

Do let me know?

If you replaced the original image with one the same size and used the same name, then you should not have to do anything other than to refresh the page to have it show up. _________________ ~HG~ \|\| rodneyangell.com \|\| My Hacks \|\| Tutorial - Stopping Spam Bots \|\| www.angells-au.com (A website I built using phpbb2 without the forum)
