   i'm totally stumped. i know a bit of html and css though this is my first attempt at using wordpress & themes so i'm not totally familiar with the wordpress structure.

   this is the website:
   http://www.mandisinc.com

   i'm only using static pages for this site and what i want to do is add a static background image (the same image for each page). so it seemed i should edit the style.css and these lines towards the top:

   body{background:#000 url(images/bg.png) repeat-x center bottom;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;color:#4e4e4e;}

   so i changed it to:
   body { background-image: url(images/background.gif) repeat center top;}

   well no luck really except that my font changed to what i prefer for the page. i uploaded all my images to:

   wp-content/themes/mystique/images

   in file manager so i think my file name is right.

   what am i overlooking? am i editing the wrong css statement?

   thanks!

   ahhh solved my problem. i had to change #primary-content, not body. so like this:

   #primary-content,#sidebar,#sidebar2{
   top:0;
   position:relative;
   float:left;
   z-index:0;
   overflow:hidden;
   min-height: 150px;
   background-image: url(images/backgroundcenter.gif);
   background-repeat: no-repeat;
   background-position: 350px 75px;
   }
