Liz – these are instructions for Wordpress.org. You are using the Wordpress.com version which has more restrictions on it.

Thanks for that great tutorial. I was looking for a background of a picture of sky, sun, grass or other nature theme to put into my eco blog but could not find among the paterns. Is there a place I can find this?

what about the page, itself ???
How do I get the page to change from white to pink, or yellow, or something ??

I’m talking about the inner page. and, come to think of it, what’s that called anyway?

I can’t get this to work…can you see an error?

body{
font-family: verdana;
font-size: 95%;
line-height: 115%;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
background-image: url(‘images/wallpaper-stripes.jpg’);
background-repeat: repeat;
background-position: center top;
text-align: center;

Hi Char…. I am not sure if I am doing this right or not. But I am pretty familiar with .css and html codes. I had changed my background image alittle and saved it as the same image name and uploaded it to the themes/power-dream/images folder. But for some reason it said it uploaded but the file was not updated.

So not sure what I am doing wrong…

Any help would be great….

thank you
Julie
