   hi
   i used to do webstie designa while back so it wouldn't normally be a veyr complicate task to insert a background image in a css tag somewhere but I never dealt with blog style structures. I can't seem to figure out why my background isn't showing up.

   I am using Hemingway Reloaded - http://themes.wordpress.net/columns/1-column/230/hemingway-reloaded-10/

   I modified the css trying various versions of the following:

   #primary{
   /*background: #FFFFFF; center top repeat-x center top repeat-y*/
   background-image:url(../images/fur-bg-01.gif) center top repeat-x;
   background:url(../images/fur-bg-01.gif) center top repeat-x;
   background-color:#FFFFFF;
   /*color: #7F7F7F;*/
   padding:1px 0 2em 0;
   }
   anyone have any suggestions?
   thanks

   ./images?

   Normally, unless you did some untold changes, the images folder of a theme is UNDER the theme folder, so no need to go UP one directory as your code says.

   right - I did that, but it didn't seem to work...i'm not sure what you are suggesting

   ../images and ./images are NOT the same.
   The first one says: go up one level, the second one says go down one level.

   YES! i was just following another reference that was being used in the css...i guess there are images at another level as well.

   thanks so much
