  The background of the page where people leave comments won’t match the same as my main wordpress page.

  here’s my wordpress
  http://limvicky.wordpress.com

  here’s the comment page
  http://limvicky.wordpress.com/2008/09/26/excuse-me/#respond

  I’ve tried everything and I can’t seem to make the background match! Keep in mind that I made the template myself. Please help if you can.

  I can’t give you any CSS guidance, but I can say that’s a snazzy-looking site!

  What theme are you modifying?

  You have center twice in this line, and you need to make sure that you add !important to it such as below:

  #page {
  background:transparent url(http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b70/vicky_l/Wordpress/bg-1.png) repeat-y scroll center !important;

  The original background in #page has “!important” and is overriding your background.
