   I cannot get the images to work on a new theme I've downloaded. It is driving me nuts. Can somebody please help me work this out.

   I am running this on a hosted site, and everything is installed on the web server in the wordpress section.

   Do I have to change something in the CSS? in the url bit before it starts specifying images... should I embellish on that url. Oh, for God's sake, it's so damn frustrating.

   I give up.

   Yeah it is frustrating. Frustrating to me because you have given me no tools whatsoever with which to help you. A LINK TO THE SITE ... would be helpful.

   The paths to the images are WRONG.

   You have this:
   ...url(themes/women-theme/images/bullet.gif);

   It should likely be this:
   ...url(/images/bullet.gif);

   And if you need help customizing WP themes, go here. My friend, Shelly's great tute on theming WP:

   Thank you, but that isn't the problem unfortunately. I think the main problem is my profound ignorance on the subject, which I am endeavoring to correct. Your friend's "great toot" has enlightened me. Thank you again!
