I can't get my Post BG to show up when I Post a Reply, but It'll show up in my Profile, and also when I'm Previewing a post, but when the Post is actually submitted, there's no picture! Any suggestions as to what is causing this? (I'm not using Freewebs anymore, I've got a Webpage on Comcast now)

... yet I see your post background here


And there's no reason for it not to show up in posts if it works in your profile and (especially) post previewing, unless the host suddenly goes down or you connection won't load the image

Try to use the proper HTML tag inside your post header than using the "Post background" field" in the profile, my example is
(...)
<table width="640" height="380" style="background:url(http://mitglied.lycos.de/mithrandir21/Rudora.jpg )>
(...)
</table> (in the signature)
Maybe using CSS might help a little more, or simply change your host again

I can see your post background well, at least in Firefox:

You really don't need a style attribute for that. <table background="http://some.image.jpg">
BTW, I see the top and bottom of the BG, but not the middle.

HH: It didn't work. BTW, the top and bottom show up because the're in my Header ans Signature.

Gandalf The Grey: Um, now my post is mixed with Acmlm's . (It's not anymore because I already got rid of it)

But it was Using my User Name, my Stats, and my User Picture (and all that kind of stuff), and using his post layout and the message he wrote.

Acmlm: My host is ok, because all of my other pictures show up at all the time.

I'm really confused.

Edit: I just made the picture part of my Hearder, and that works just fine for me (but you should see if there's something wrong with the Post BG itself, maybe it could be a recent problem)
BTW: On the old Board, the Post BG worked, but on the new board, it doesn't

How do you get a picture to have a transparent color (for example, some things will use black as a transparent color.

{utting in the URL manually worked for me, but... eh. A 190 something KB image for a background is bad; not to mention the whole thing's fixed width at a whopping 800 pixels [jesuschrist] ... consider making it stretchy.

And it might be wise to just dump the DIV tags and use table tags instead...

But the BG's okay minus the size. Just fix a few things

Well, I think I have it the way I want, but I'm not sure how to make it repeat correctly if someone stretches the Thread's Horizontal Length.

Hence why tables [or one of those super-layout stuck up designers would say CSS, I say the fux CSS] would be a better choice...

It wouldn't depend on someone not stretching the tables. Considering that your layout would be badly tiled from the resolution I use anyway ...

Easy way to do it would be to just have it like how mine [and probably several others do], just have
1-----2-----3
4---TEXT----6
7-----8-----9]
where --- = repeating and 8 = images.

Ask someone else how to do it htough; I know how but I'm not in the mood nor akake enough to do so.

Yep, separate the left and right borders from the background ... that can be done without tables if you use <div> and some padding:

<div "style=background:url(background.png);width=100%"><div style="background:url(leftborder.png) left repeat-y"><div style"background:url(rightborder.png) right repeat-y;padding:15px">Post text goes here


And never use fixed width larger than 600, it'll stretch tables in 800x600

Psst... You're not on IRC.

Anyway, it's showing up fine now. Looks to me like it'd be just fine repeating, which is good because there's little you can do about it.
