 * I am trying to help out with a website ([http://www.chetekinteriors.com/wordpress](http://www.chetekinteriors.com/wordpress))–
   the background image is what features the column – it is ran by the css settings
   in a theme I purchased.
 * For some reason, when I edit the CSS settings for the background image display
   properties, it shows fine on my mac but on windows and smaller computers the 
   background image placement is wrong.
 * If I resize my browser window the image changes as well – are there any CSS styles
   that could help me fix this so that everything is universal on all browsers and
   computers?
 * The website is chetekinteriors.com/wordpress – Attached is my CSS coding:

 * When you say the image placement is wrong on Windows, what browser are you using,
   and if it’s IE, what version of IE?
 * Have you looked at it in FF on Windows?
 * I checked in FF on Linux and it seems to be behaving correctly. That is the image
   is always 10% in from the left – which of course means that it goes behind the
   main image if the viewport is small enough.
 * The only way you could stop that would be to give #main a min-width. With your
   current 10% offset, a min-width of 1400px would do it. Works for me in FF on 
   Linux:
 *     ```
       #main {
         background: url("../images/idea_1.png") no-repeat scroll 10% 0 #FFFFFF !important;
         min-width: 1400px;
       }
       ```
