Backgraound image for Legal Copyright and Site Info IP

Can any one direct me to the file to change the background for the Legal copyright and the Site Info IP?

Now, it is white and I would like to have a background image to go with the design of the page.

Also I would like to add another link and need to know which file and how to add the link information.

Thanks!

Try adding this to your stylesheet (new info in blue). Adjust the image as desired. I'm not sure exactly how it' look.

#navColumnOne, #navColumnTwo {
	background-color: transparent;
	}

#siteinfoLegal, #siteinfoIP {
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	background-image: url(../images/bg_nav_background.JPG);
	}

You may want to consider turning off the IP address display since users seem to find it a bit creepy. You can turn it off in admin>configuration>layout settings>Footer - Show IP Address status.

The page is VERY slow to load. Consider optimizing the images.
