 * Hi,
 * I would like to add a photograph as a background image in a row on one of my 
   pages. However, the photogrpah is too large. Does anyone know the dimensions 
   of a WordPress row in pixels so I can resize the picture?
 * Thank you
    Leslie Ann

 * Most modern browsers have developer tools that can help you identify the pixel
   dimensions of page elements. There’s a plugin for FireFox called Developer Tools
   that I think has that.

 * Try to add this CSS to the needed div using style:
    .class { background: url(“
   your/url/Image.png”) no-repeat center; }
 * If you are using table you can do this:
    1. Add background to the one td only:
   <td style=”background: url(/images/tr-background.gif) no-repeat 0 0;”>Row 1</
   td>
 * 2. If you want it across the row try this code:
    table { width: 300px; background-
   image: url(‘mypic.jpg’); background-repeat: repeat-y; }
