In reply to: Do I need to hack my awake theme to get what I want??I’m sorry, If you don’t know what classes are, there is just no way we can get through this. It’s like showing up to get your driver license and asking what the steering wheel is.
There are plenty of free tutorials on the web if you want to learn HTML/CSS if you want to go this route. Otherwise, like I said before, hire a professional.

In reply to: Do I need to hack my awake theme to get what I want??In order for that code to work, your pages are going to need those clases – you need to fin your pages classes. ( if they even have any. )

In reply to: Do I need to hack my awake theme to get what I want??I really sort of difficult to explain here. It’s not like there is Just one way. You may need to edit you HTML and certainly your CSS to allow your images to span the distance you want.
In terms of different backgrounds for your different pages, depedning on you php source code, you may be able to just define different backgrounds with css.
Like:body.home{ background-image: image one; } body.page{ background-image; another image; }If not, that needs to be edited too…
SO where to start? Basic HTML/CSS. Or higher a professional who can do it all in an hour.

In reply to: Background CSS QuestionNo. here is what you have:
html{ background-image:'http://www.solstation.com/stars/earth3sa.jpg'; }which is essentially:
html{ }(nothing) and that’s how it’s rendered by the browser and fire bug. So that’s why it’s not showing up, and why I keep telling you to add it. Don’t get mad at me that you don’t know CSS syntax.
You need:
html{ background-image: url(PATH TO YOUR IMAGE!!!!!!); }WHen you come here asking CSS questions, I think we all assume you know the basics.

In reply to: Background CSS QuestionI suggest you apply the background to the HTML tag. I’ve said that a few times now 😉
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Background CSS QuestionNope. looks like it’s still working. Still no background applied to the HTML tag though.

In reply to: Background CSS QuestionNo you didn’t. You’ve set it to the body again.

In reply to: Do I need to hack my awake theme to get what I want??The changes you want are not solved by simply cutting and pasting canned code snippets. Depending on your source code it could take quite a bit of restructuring.
Do you have the firebug tool bar for FF or some other element inspector? that should at least help you with some padding issues…

In reply to: Background CSS Questionhtml{
background: your image;
}Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Background CSS QuestionMake the HTML background your image. Still though, it’s not going to fill more then 1600×1024. Why would I lie to you?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Background CSS QuestionIt’s 1600×1024.
That’s your problem. It’s not larger then it displays on your page. If someones monitor is larger the ~1600×1024 they are going to see white, unless the BG image is repeated.
No but you should at least let us know that you are referring to a plugin. Sorry, no experience with said plugin. Though likely it’s just a css change you are looking for.
Re word please. are you talking about the 2011 theme? Yes you can remove the the edit box although i’m not sure why you want to customize this, you are the only on that sees it…

In reply to: Do I need to hack my awake theme to get what I want??Do you have links tot he page(s) you need changed? And to answer your question, no, you don’t need to “hack” your theme. From the sounds of it, you just need some CSS edits and maybe some properly sized images 🙂

In reply to: Coding Not Registering to site????You are rather difficult to understand. But if I understand correctly, you are saying that your *incorrect* source code still exists yet your wordpress install is all back to normal?
Are you sure you are looking at the right source code? Did tech support REinstall wordpress in a different directory and or database?
