I've had alot of trouble with this, it's not as easy as adding a background but in the body tag. Don't know why but someone suggested adding it into the body tag in every template which would take ages.

Because <body> is a replacement and all the templates use it.

And so it won't work putting it into the replacement? So...

Well I mean going through all the templates to replace them would take forever, albeit there's a mass search/replace in the template engine.

Why not just change the style properties which changes the replacement, like you said? :confused:

When I did it, it doesn't cover the whole pages background. Only part.

It was weird, but maybe it adapts from style to style. I'm not sure.
