Please could someone explain how to set an image in the background of the forumhome?

Everything I've found so far has been about category images, but what I would like to do is set it up so it looks like the forumbits are on top of one huge patterned image.

Any help appreciated. :)

Ummmm


Goto the replacement section of your admin cp and find the replacement for <body>

Copy what you have.

Then in your 'forumhome' template find:


<body>

Replace it with the thing you just copied from the replacement section.

Then somewhere in your body tag put this:


background="{ imagesfolder}/pagebg.gif"


Remove the gap from between the { and the imagesfolder though :)

Then upload your giant image to your images directory and there ya go :)
