There is a line where the gradient mets the background color in both the unaltered copy and any background I put in. I am thinking that there is a bottom border on images and that is what is showing up with the body background image but I don't see where to turn that off or find what is actually causing it.

Your demo copy does not show it that way, but the template was put on a clean install of 1.3.9h so I don't think it is coming from there.

Thanks,
I can't help you if you don't post a link to your site.

Thanks,
