I would like to have the back ground on my forum to be a tire track.
The thing is I am not sure about how to do it?
I think I can use the Main CSS with something like this:
url($vboptions[bburl]/img/bg.jpg)
But for the life of me I can't see to figure out which one's I need to edit?
Also I do not want to affect the performance, so if I could get any help or ideas!?!
I am uploading the picture in which I would like to be my bg. So you can get some kind of an idea what I am talking about.

Thanks,

dreck

In Main CSS, in the first field for Body, for the "background" field add the following:

Code:

#FFFFFF url($vboptions[bburl]/img/bg.jpg) repeat top left

I must not understand or doing something wrong?

Try putting the entire absolute url in the same area rather than using $vboption[bburl]
You are using the correct field.

hmm?
I got the same thing with:

Code:

#FFFFFF url (http://www.thisdarncar.com/vb/img/bg.jpg) repeat top left

remove the space after 'url'

Worked like a charm, thanks!
