Hi,
I been trying for 4 hours to make this work...without success..
I do understand customization somewhat but this got me stuck..
What am i doing wrong? or what is the right way to go...

1.I understand that this code suposed to replace my home page background colour which is black now...and place image in the background full page....am i right on this?

2.This code bellow is replaced with image location from my portofolio (originaly Andy Wiliams location)
body.homepage {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image:
url(http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/photos/404670360_6nzrN-M.jpg (http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/photos/404670360_6nzrN-M.jpg));
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
}

3.I do know i have to put this in CSS
4.Do i need to remove any brackets?
5.Do i need to remove anything else for this to work?


Right now is not doing anything....

Thanks in advance for any help i can get

Remove the \ in front from this.

\#my_music {display: none;}


This works to show your photo.

body.homepage {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image:
url(http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/photos/404670360_6nzrN-M.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left bottom;
}

Allen,
Thank u
I was busy bee yesterday getting all kind a thing customized....
I stil wanna do more...I would like to have background photo.....but the problem is when i do...system resize it to the size that is to small for background.and i beleive only staff can do it..unless i know the page size...
maybe i should have it 1280 x 800 that might cover the page so i can size it by telling system to display that size...

Thanks again:clap
