Changing Background Image

[misty]

NOTE
Correct code should be

body {font: 62.5% verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #333; background: #fff url(../images/yourimage.jpg)}

ok, I added the correct, but does the image need to be in .jpg format or .gif?

Does not matter AS LONG AS you specify correct format in stylesheet
i.e.
../images/yourimage.jpg
or
../images/yourimage.gif

where do i need to save the image at before I add it on the stylesheet page?

/includes/templates/classic/images/

Does anyone have any idea why Zen-Cart changes my css on the fly.

I have been trying to apply a background image to my site http://gscoffeeclub.com/store/ and for some reason it keeps changing it to transparent.

This is what I have in my css file:

body {
    background:url(/includes/templates/gscoffeeclub/images/til_1.jpg) repeat;
    color: #666666;
    margin-left: 5%;
    margin-right:5%;
    width: 90%;
    }

This is what firebug gets when I am looking at the page:

body {
background:transparent url(/includes/templates/gscoffeeclub/images/til_1.jpg) repeat scroll 0%;
color:#666666;
margin-left:5%;
margin-right:5%;
width:90%;
}

I have deleted all other css files in all of the other template folders just in case they might be getting loaded after the main file and I am still getting this change. I have also checked and rechecked a dozen times to be sure that the image is where it is supposed to be. This one has me stumped.

Anybody have any ideas?


Thanks,
