  Hi there,

  I´m new in the blogger-community and want to know how to get a customized background without the CSS upgrade! I found this code :

  <div style=”position:fixed;height:727px;left:0;top:0;width:1200px;background-image:url(‘http://www.YOUR BLOG.WORDPRESS.COM/IMAGE’);background-repeat:repeat-x;text-decoration:none;

  but it doesn´t work…

  Can somebody please help me?

  Thx

  Try a forum search. Three or four people have discussed this within the last couple of weeks, so there are definitely answers around here somewhere.

  <div style=”position:fixed;height:727px;left:0;top:0;width:1200px;background-image:url(‘http://www.YOUR BLOG.WORDPRESS.COM/IMAGE’);background-repeat:repeat-x;text-decoration:none;

  There are a number of things wrong with the syntax of this code. Did you replace the url with the link to your image? And close the > brackets?

  And put the proper code (once fixed) into a text widget?

  Yes, i put it in a text widget like that:

  <div style=”position:fixed;height:…px;left:0;top:0;width:…px;background-image:url(‘http//:my.image.dot.com’);background-repeat:repeat-x;text-decoration:none;>

  I replace the “…” with the correct px of the picture and paste the link of the picture between the two ” ‘ ” !
