    Default Re: adding an image behind the sideboxes?

    It should look like this - you may or may not need the repeat, depending on your image:

    background-image: url(../images/your_image.jpg);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;


    and your image would go in the images folder.

    Default Re: adding an image behind the sideboxes?

    Thanks, but no matter what I do it stays the same green as everything else, I can change the color but not get an image up,

    background-image: url(../images/your_image.jpg);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;

    I would have thought that at least it would effect something but the page stays the same.

    Green? You mean the sidebox headers, then.

    The green headers are images, too. It's called tile_back.gif. Search for that in the stylesheet and replace the image name with your own.

    No sorry, I've changed the background of the whole page including the NavColumn1 and 2 to a lime green. When I change the code that says background-color: #0000ff; to background-image that bright green dosen't go away.
    Sorry for the misunderstanding, I'm new to this.

    I know I'm editing the right part because when I change the color it works perfectly, this just makes me more frustrated.
    I've checked the image by viewing it from my hosting control panel and everything looks fine.

    I guess we'll need a link to your site.

    I believe that the image needs to go into the includes/templates/YOUR-TEMPLATE/images directory. Not the images directory in the root of your store...

    If you have Firefox, you can right click on the shaded image in the title bar, and click properties and it will give you the full URL of there that image was loaded from. That's where you need to put your new image.

    Default Re: adding an image behind the sideboxes?

    I've been working on this for ages with no luck, I can do anything to the Navcolumns except get an image to show up. I've even created a new template and only tried to replace the navcolumn image but nothing happens. Any help would be most appreshiated, thank you.

    If you want specific help with your template you'll need to give a link to see your site. We can't fix it blind.
