Full Version: Adding background image
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I would like to add a  background image to my forum, I've already read about going into global.css and adding in body or #container "background: <color> url(link);. But that doesn't work for me (sadly enough). 

I'm using the theme flatty.

And this is my full global.css
body {

Sorry for the very long post.

I just want this picture to be my background.

I'm using the theme flatty.

And this is my full global.css
body {
	background: #eceef0;
	color: #555;
	text-align: center;
	line-height: 1.431;
	margin: 0;
	font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, Tahoma, sans-serif;

	overflow-y: scroll; 
	text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;
	-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
	vertical-align: baseline;
}

body {
    background:#171717 url(images/mybbdarkness/calaqui.png) repeat center center fixed !important;
...

}

Here is partial code for my first theme for my website.

That's the way to add background images.
