 * Hi. Love the Vantage theme.
    Ideally I’d like the background image to be ‘fixed’
   instead of scrolling. Is there any option, or way to do this? Luke

 * If you’re using Vantage in boxed mode and the core WordPress background image
   feature, then this is fairly easy. Navigate to Appearance > Background. There’s
   a setting called Attachment under Display Options. Change this from Scroll to
   Fixed.

 * Hi Greg. Thanks for your prompt reply. Is there anything I can do to get the ‘
   fixed background image option in Full Screen mode?
    Thanks Luke

 * When I activate the Vantage theme, there is no Background option under Appearance.
 * How can I add a background image to this Theme?

 * NM. I found it. Found the boxed mode and background now is available.
 * Thanks.

 * Hi Luke,
 * Try the following as custom CSS:
 *     ```
       #main {background-repeat:no-repeat;
         background-attachment:fixed;}
       ```
   
 * For me, this produced a static background image and the text scrolls over the
   top of it. Looks much better.
 * Cheers
 * Luke
