 * I’m having trouble getting a background image in my wordpress. I added it to 
   the style sheet and the index but nothing’s showing up. anyone else have any 
   problems with this?

 * Hi Kaylee,
 * It looks like the url to your image is incorrect. In your wp-layout.css you have:
   
   background-image: url(“[http://www.phoenixsong.org/allissa/images/sun.gif&#8221](http://www.phoenixsong.org/allissa/images/sun.gif&#8221););
 * which doesn’t work. If I change it to:
    background-image: url(“[http://www.phoenixsong.org/images/sun.gif&#8221](http://www.phoenixsong.org/images/sun.gif&#8221););
 * I get a sun underneath your main content. Is that what you were looking for?

   for your help.
