Re: css
its not to hard really. Open your "master.css" file which is in the "styles" folder.
On live 1 youll see this code:
Code:
body { background: #F8F8F8; padding: 0px 0px 40px 0px; margin: 0px; font-family: 'Verdana', 'Trebuchet MS', 'Arial', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color: #666666; }
Has you can see the background is set to color #F8F8F8. We can chnage this a few ways.
Make a background color: Chnage the XXX to the color you want.
Make the background an image: Chnage the XXX to the image URL.
Code:
background: url(XXX);
Lets combine the 2: Chnage the XXX just like you did in both codes above. This code lets you fill in the areas around a smaller picture with a color.
Code:
background: #XXX url(XXX);
Now you can get much more setailed than this but this should get you started. For use on any other website other than classipress just keep the body tag such has:
Code:
body { background: #XXX;}
This fills in the entire body of the site with what color or image you tell it to.
