Default Catagory Strip Gradient Questions

I was playing some new colors on my forum that I just got running. I liked the way the catagory strips had a gradient but I wanted to try green. So I created the new gradient images in photoshop and replaced the old ones on my server. Then I made the color changes in admincp. Here is what I don't understand:

#66CC00 url(images/gradients/gradient_tcat.gif) repeat-x top left

Can someone explain to me how this is supposed to work??? My catagory strips don't really appear to have a gradient or the color is just completely off from the gradient images that I created. Help please.

Here is a link to my site....and be gentle...I just got it running and i'm still playing around with colors and all that good stuff.

Its there, your graident is just so large its not showing the whole thing, second this is more of a template / style question you would have been better off askign at vBuleltin templates.com which is the vB source for Template and style moding

Actually, the problem on that particular page is with the image paths for the vBadvanced installation.

They work fine inside the forum dirctory

It's more obvious on this page where the Category Strip is taller.

You may try giving the gradient some more contrast.

Cool. Thanks for the info guys. I'll try giving the gradient more contrast or adjusting the gradient a little differently. Any info by chance on how this "url(images/gradients/gradient_tcat.gif) repeat-x top left" code works??? More specifically the "repeat-x top left" portion of the code.
