 * Hi there, you could try something like this:
 *     ```
       body {
           background-image: url("http://craftitbakeit.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/wood_planks___d632_by_agf81-d5fz4zl2.jpg");
       }
   
       header, section.container {
           background-color: #fff;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know how it goes!

 * I am having the same issue but neither code above works for me. I have a child
   theme on a self hosted site and it looks like redjoker achieved what they wanted
   with their site, but it’s not working for me. I am placing the code in my child
   theme style.css file but nothing happens, not sure why. Maybe I need to put the
   code somewhere else? Any help would be appreciated. My site is [http://sarahfinadesigns.com/](http://sarahfinadesigns.com/)

 * Hi sarahfinadesign – since this post is over 6 months old and you’re using the
   original Bluchic version of Adelle, which is a bit different from the WordPress.
   com version, could you post over in the Adelle forum to get help with the issue?
   Thanks!
