Re: backgrounds

If you just haven't found anything on using a image for a background, then you just haven't done enough research. A web designer should be able to add a background image with both hands tied behind their back.

I looked at your web page and notices you are setting the background color from the tag. A background image can be set from the same tag. But since All of the tag attributes have been depreciated, you are better off moving all of the body attributes out of the tag and put them in a style.

For details and examples on how to use styles to manage background images and colors, try W3Schools - CSS Background.

Re: Re: backgrounds

My inate modesty prevented me from suggesting simply looking at my site.

That and the fact that I still haven't got around to shifting the background from the body tag to a style.
