  I have just purchased a custom CSS upgrade for my site ( http://www.visitprinceedwardcounty.com ) only to find out that this is incompatible with my premium theme (linen). As a consequence I would like to cancel the CSS upgrade but cannot for the life of me figure out how to do so. In order to make the site look and feel as I would like I need a custom background.

  To address this I would like to either opt out the custom CSS or have someone explain how I can make my background image show up.

  Please advise.
  Best,
  Dave.

  Hi there,

  The Custom Design upgrade is compatible with all themes at WordPress.com.

  You can edit your CSS and change your fonts at Appearance -> Custom Design.

  It looks like you’ve set up a background image at Appearance -> Background, and it appears to working fine on my side.

  Don’t hesitate to contact us again if you need anymore help. :-)

  Thanks for the reply. The issue I believe goes one step deeper than that. The two are not entirely separate as they would be on say Twenty Eleven or other theme. In any case I was able to resolve the issue by setting the CSS to the following:

  body {
  line-height:1;
  font-size:65%;
  font-family:Georgia, Times, serif;
  color:#333;
  background-color:none;
  background-image:url(‘//sandbanksvacations.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/background103.jpg’);
  background-repeat:no-repeat;
  background-attachment:fixed;
  }

  T]he change being that the background color was changed to none and I added a background URL. If this is a “standard” solution I did not see anything to this effect on the boards.
  Best,
  Dave.
