Actually, if you could post it here or pm me what you did for ie8 in your html and relevant css file I would appreciate it... was looking online and I still see that ie8 is used by 10% of the global users... opinions, thoughts on setting up forum for ie8 users? Thanks.

As soon as I get a chance I will send it your way, or post it. My daughter is leaving for college in a few days, so I am extra busy.

I believe this should do the work:

PHP Code:

demo

I tried the ms filter code from that site and it started showing double pics...

Thanks I will try that. Any idea how to shrink a png file smaller? I tried a different image and I was able to compress it to 2 megs which I think is still too big... I need the transparency...

here you are: http://compresspng.com/

if you have original source .psd, then you can reduce the size foor sure, but for now if you don't then use the link above to make the size as small as possible.

Good luck

Thanks. I have been using that. The smallest I can get the image down in a png is 1.6m is that going to be an issue? Thanks for the input...

Naw I don't think 1.6M is going to a big issue.

Thanks. At what point or size do you feel it does become an issue? Thinking of a few other images, but they are larger... as in around 10 megs...

I see that someone developed a JS for multiple backgrounds, including crappy IE (deprecated versions)... I have a custom template, but I assume the same as the vanilla version that came with VB. Anyways, can I add the JS through the admincp? If not, which files would be the most appropriate? Thanks again!

EDIT: found this to supercede the JS, thoughts on how to implement it, and which files? Thanks!
