Hellish Simplicity with background image

[Anonymous]

Hi Ryan! I’m really struggling and wondering if you could help me (and this is coming from a complete wordpress reject..I’ve NO clue hehehe). Anyway, I’m looking for a very simple theme with a drop down menu which I will be using for client info. I really want a theme where I can add a background jpg. I really like your theme, but can I combine it with a background? I still want the white face, single column (not necessary to have a column on the side either) but I would like to have a background style on the sides.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

So you want a white central column, with a graphic displayed along the sides?

What you need to do, is to edit the CSS file (style.css for the red design or styleblue.css for the blude design) which comes with this theme and change the following:

body {margin:0;padding:0}

and change that to something like the following:

body {
background:url(‘url.jpg’);
margin:0;
padding:0;
}

where url.jpg is the image file you want displayed.

Exactly what I’m looking for, off to try, thank you SO much!

Let me know if it doesn’t work (and post a link to it not working here if possible) and I’ll take a look at it. I haven’t tested this so I could have gotten something wrong.
