  I’m trying to add a custom background to the Manifest Theme. I have an image that I want to repeat on the sides, while preserving the white background in the main content area of the theme.

  My two questions are:

  1. Where do I upload my image?
  2. What is the CSS code I need to use to create the custom background?

  Thanks a bunch!

  The site you reference is using Reddle. Did you switch themes, or are you talking about a different site?

  The media library, see http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/#upload-images-from-your-computer

  You need to write new CSS for that. It would help if you uploaded the image and then linked it so we can get a better idea of your end goal.
