Help! Change Background Image for Albeo
-
Hello, I have just signed up with wordpress and I am currently trying to alter the css in various themes to find out what would work for me. While I am very farmiliar with html, I am some what lost in css.
I like the Albeo theme and I only wish to change the background image, but after going through the coding and changing all things I thought resembled “images”, I still was unable to do so.Where in the coding can I change thr background image for albeo?
Thanks in advance for your help!

We cannot help without a link to your blog. And if you are hosted here at wordpress.COM, consider linking your user name to your blog as explained in the sticky, 8 Things, at the top of the forums.
There is NO official support for CSS and its purchase is not recommended unless you are already experienced with it. There are only a few people in the forum who are well versed in it.

I apologize, I had only been to the css part of the forum. I have fixed the “username” problem.
I am also aware of what you have pointed out. However, I do not believe it is that complicated of a request.
Since I do have years of expereince in html, I believe that I can catch on to css by leaning it through tutorials found on other sites and what-not, and I have been doing so.
I am only asking this after having tried to fix it myself.Again, I ask only “where” in the coding the “background image can be changed” in the theme “albeo”?

It’s in the second line of the code.
‘
body { background: #fbfbf8 url(images/bkg-body.jpg) no-repeat center top; font: normal 12px “Verdana”, sans-serif; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; }
`
And taking that attitude is a sure fire way to get little help here in the forums. As you have discovered, knowing HTML is of little use in dealing with CSS. -
I was unaware of an attitude. I am only trying to have a positive outlook and I do not appreciate being put down for trying to learn something new. Sorry for the misunderstanding, but I meant only that I am more farmiliar with webdesign then say someone who has no expereince at all.
I am very appreciative of your help in finding the line of code. Thank you very much.
From now on I will do my best to refrain from asking for any assistance here and will do my best to learn elsewhere. I feel silly for missing something so simple.
Thanks again for your help. -
You will find that this forum is populated by volunteers who are willing to help, particularly when someone has tried to find the answer themselves. Believe it or not, the only reason I answered you was because you said you had looked and couldn’t find it. Even so, I was offended by the demanding nature of your tone.

Vivian, I agree with lolitalife. The only person in this thread with an attitude was you. Urgency is not the same as demanding. When someone asks for help, it’s not the same is saying “give me the answer”.
