Background images don’t align the same in Firefox as they do in IE.
I am testing my site in IE 8, and even thought i have this background-position: center top; the background image in internet explorer appears to be shifter to the right by 10px. i am only having this problem on my wordpress powered sites, and have tried multiple themes. any ideas???

A link would be an idea so people can see what you’re seeing, and know what code & css is behind whatever you’re talking about.

yeah i know its on MU, but its more of a general css question and thought it would be better answered here.

also the style sheet is .php cuase it is fully changeable in the admin.

The image you’ve linked to is 1600 wide. The image on your server is 1872 wide.

why would that matter if it is centered?

You have margin-left: 11px in your stylesheet for body, but no margin-right – perhaps it is this 11px that you’re noticing? I don’t see any difference in IE7 as I said earlier. Although at my resolution I have a blue border on both sides and bottom when the browser window is maximised.

the margin-left: 11px is what i added to deal with the problem, so now it works.

So your issue is resolved (and this thread can be marked resolved by yourself) then? Although checking the link to your site just now, things have changed and the above is no longer an issue I presume.
