    Default #mainwrapper image

    I am trying to place a .jpg image in the #mainwrapper. It is basically a "frame" that goes around all four sides to create a "blur effect" so that the two different colors (main wrapper and sidebox) don't crash into each other. I have tried placing url(../images/image_name.jpg) in the css with the image in the image directory, but so far nothing appears.

    Am I missing something?

    Which image directory? Template images should not go in the base /images/ but in
    /includes/templates/your_template/images/.

    The image is in includes/ templates/ my_template/ images, but it still is a no show.

    Without seeing the site I don't know what else we can suggest.

    If we can see the site we can examine the stylesheet for possible errors.

    I understand, but it is currently on a local machine. Basically, what I am trying to accomplish is to remove the "sharp edge" from the two different colors. With the sideboxes straddling the main wrapper, I am trying to "diffuse" those edges. Maybe by adding a blur effect, a horizontal gradient, etc.

    I have a .jpg image of what I can only describe as a picture frame. This frame is the image I was trying to insert into the #mainwrapper section of the css.

    Are you sure that nothing inside #mainWrapper has a background image or color? That could be hiding a #mainWrapper image that is correctly displaying.
