Column Image

[Forum5]

I want to place an image in the left/right column. That is, I want to fill the column with an image or color pattern.

I though about just placing the image into a banner and turn the banner on but it’s not very elegant. I’d rather do something else.

You should be able to do that in the stylesheet. Look for ".leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {" and add your image there. That's how I got the image in the sideboxes on the Fan Odyssey site in my sig.

.rightBoxContainer {
    margin: 0em;
    border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
    border-bottom: 5px solid #336633;
    margin-top: 1.5em;
   }
    
.leftBoxContainer,  {
    margin: 0em;
    border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
    border-bottom: 5px solid #336633;
    margin-top: 1.5em;
    }

.sideBoxContent {
    background-color: #ffffff;
    padding: 0.4em;
       background-image: url(../images/logo.jpg);
       background: url(../images/logo.jpg);
    } 

Either "background-image" or "background" will work. It will work as a background for the ".sideBoxContainer" but not the ".leftBoxContainer" or ".rightBoxContainer" .

It will only work as a background and only work if there is a .sideBox present.

What I am wanting is an image without any .sideBoxes turned on.

I found it.

/*sideboxes*/
.columnLeft {
     padding: 0.4em;
    background-image: url(../images/logo.jpg);
    } 

And it works without the .sideBoxes turned on.
