as a background image to the site:
http://www.oakraflooring.co.uk
Added the following to the override file as suggested in an earlier post but no joy... do i require further css amendments? Thanks as always joe


html {
background: url('../images/style1/bg1.jpg') top center no-repeat;
}
body,
#gkTop,
#gkPageContentWrap {
background: none !important;
}

Use this code please for your html background...

Code: Select all

html { background: url("../images/style1/back.jpg") center top no-repeat scroll;}


See you around...

Thanks Norm, tried this no effect?

Hi

If You want a background under the site You need to remove white background from some elements:

Code: Select all

#gkTop, #gkPageContentWrap {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
}


than add the background to body:

Code: Select all

body {
    background: url('../images/style1/bg1.jpg') top center no-repeat;
}


so almost the same as You'v tried. Please check if override is enabled in template settings.

I've added each of these snippets to the override.css... without success... Do I have to manually remove the reference to the white backfround> are they in the template.css?

Hi,
Tried to add a background image to the site as well.

It did not work with an image but if i change

body {
background: url('../images/style1/bg1.jpg') top center no-repeat;
}

to:

body {
background-color:#000000 ;
}

it changes the background to black - so we are nearly there

BUT - i would like the body to have another color and still remain the content area to be white background. Would that be possible?

Thanks

Hi Buddy... you get anywhere with this one?

@JoeMcM ,

I can see the code is working on your site when I checked it for background, what was the problem.

Also your background image name is "back.jpg" not "bg1.jpg". Fix that in your css code and it should work.

See you around...

Hi

Norman is right. I can see it too.

Just wanted to add to not bumb Your own thread. It goes to the end of the line after each post so if there is a lot of question it takes more time to get back to it again.
