Change background behind fix width skin


Ms Holly

Recommended Posts

I have a fix width customised skin and would like to change the background that appears behind the shop to an image. I've done a few google and forum searches but don't seem to be asking the right question. Can any one help me out.

I am very new at this but have managed to make a few changes so far.

Cheers

Holly

Hi Holly

Thanks for that, it is easier to see what needs doing :)

I take it you mean the white background surrounding the centred div? If so, you will need to edit the body style on your layout.css and add a background-image style to it, something like background-image: url (images/general/your_image.jpg). You will need to upload the image to a folder on your server, /images/general should be ok. Depnding on the image you use, will depend on how the style will need to be, ie. will it repeat or is it one big image etc. Also, you may need to alter your #pageSurround style, on the same stylesheet, to keep the background white, or the image will be visible through it. A background-color: #FFFFFF style would need to be added.

Hope that helps
