edit your style CSS file
Full body Stretch ( top aligned ) :
In BODY tag add { background:url(image location} repeat-y; }
Fixed width:
Create an id, I think u have done that as ” WRAPPER “
add this
{
background:url(image location} repeat-y;
margin: 0 auto 0;
width:820px;
}
Start this DIV next to <BODY> in header.php
close this div after Footer in footer.php
Thanks so much vivsin
I’ve done all you’ve said and still not working! though not sure what you mean by
Full body Stretch ( top aligned ) :
background has changed to white now!!!
this is my body css
body {color: #939393; background-color:#000;font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;font-weight:normal;padding-top: 0px;background:url(http://www.choicebananas.co.nz/wordpress/wp-content/themes/maze/images/background.gif) repeat-y;}
and this is my wrapper css
#wrapper {
background:url(http://www.choicebananas.co.nz/wordpress/wp-content/themes/maze/images/background.gif)
repeat-y;
margin: 0 auto 0;
width:820px;
}
have closed my div in footer.php (which I hadn’t before)
?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

If I understand this correctly, you want the main content (the posts & sidebar) to have a horizontal tile bg, centered with 820px width.
might want to try the following solution, first find on line 36
#container {background:none;position: absolute;min-height: 100%;height: auto;width: 640px;}
replace with
#container {background:none;min-height: 100%;height: auto;width: 640px;}
Next, find on line 51
#wrapper {
background:url(http://www.choicebananas.co.nz/wordpress/wp-content/themes/maze/images/background.gif)
repeat-y;
margin: 0 auto 0;
width:820px;
}
replace with
#wrapper {
background: #6C6E71 url('/wordpress/wp-content/themes/maze/images/background.gif') repeat-x 0%;
margin: 0pt auto;
width: 820px;
}
you rock, lots of little subtle things I’ll have to get my head around but that works fine for this stage.
Thanks so much : )
