The profile background picture problems

[SamPolch]

I'm kinda new to customizing my profile and such and when I try to add a picture to be set as the background using the code line *background-image:url();* in CSS, but when I check my page out the background stays transparent with the Deus Ex ad in the background... am I able to change it?

Or am I supposed to copy that url into the design tool because I've tried that and it changes the background a solid black

Ok I fixed the problem turns out I put in the url into the design tool and nothing else

here is the two codes that you would use to manipulate those backgrounds.
you do not have to use the userinfo, just the body for it to function.
also delete the url of the background in the design tool before saving the below code in the custom css section.

Code: Select all

body{
background-image:url();
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-attachment:fixed;
background-position:center;}

#userinfo{
background-image:url();
background-repeat:repeat;
background-attachment:scroll;
background-position:center;}

Thank you for the codes, it worked well for me and now I'm gonna keep messing with the whole thing to see how far I can customise this

n/p and keep messing with the codes, each profile on here has different codes to make things happen. so you need to view the source of each. 1 through 3 at least. the PS3 profile seems to be locked from editing.... >_>
