• OK Guys,
    I got my personal header in…..
    I understand the default background is a jpg file.
    I know it needs to be changed in the themes.php
    I am looking at the following:

    body { background: url(“<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/darkblue.jpg”); }
    <?php /* Checks to see whether it needs a sidebar or not */ if ((! $withcomments) && (! is_single())) { ?>
    #page { background: url(“<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/kubrickbg.jpg”) repeat-y top; border: none; }
    <?php } else { // No sidebar ?>
    #page { background: url(“<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/kubrickwide.jpg”) repeat-y top; border: none; }
    <?php } ?>
    #header { background: url(“<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/personalheader.jpg”) no-repeat bottom center; }
    #footer { background: url(“<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/images/kubrickfooter.jpg”) no-repeat bottom; border: none;}

    I changed the first Kubrick reference with a small dark blue image file and it gave me a shadow around the blog body. Not what I thought it would do, but I liked it and left it.

    Question 1. Do I only need to replace the (kubrick/bg/wide/footer) references with a color.jpg?
    Is that it? Nothing else on the sheet? No messing with the style.css?

    Question 2. If I create a color.jpg and upload it to my images directory, what size (pixels x pixels) does it need to be? Does it matter? I understand it repeats.

    Just an analog idiot here. I’m trying to do this without messing anything up and learning as I go.

    thanks in advance for any help,
    Stikguy
