Major Coding (need help)

Okay so I'm still a beginner in codes, even though I'm getting use to it...this is a big job. And I don't even know if it is possible. So I was wondering if anyone can give a code to set this picture: http://64.34.162.133/uploads2/101086_-_darkforest.jpg as the background on this site: http://spiritguardians.darkbb.com/forum.htm and that the forum is see-through; to be able to see the background... Thanks in advance! And I appreciate any help on this.

Hello,

You can go to Admin CP > Display > Colors > CSS
Add this code there and submit.

Code:

body {
background : url(http://64.34.162.133/uploads2/101086_-_darkforest.jpg) repeat top left fixed;
}
#wrap {
width : 800px;
opacity : 0.9;
}

Thank you for that! And it did kind of worked. But how can I get it so where I can see the full background? Make the forum see-through?

Well, its not impossible but it won't really look good, I think.
Try decreasing the opacity : 0.9 in the code that I gave you.
Set it to 0.5 or 0.2 or any you want. It will make everything transparent including the images and text.

I did, it didn't change anything.

After making changes you must hit the submit button and then refresh the forum index page to see the changes.

Okay, I did that but nothing changed.

In order to properly support opacity, you need additional code. Below this line:

Code:

opacity: 0.9;

add another line, so it looks like this:

Code:

opacity: 0.9;
filter: alpha(opacity=90);

The first line is how all but one current browser supports opacity. The second line is how Internet Explorer supports opacity. The first line will accept a number between 0 and 1. The second line will accept a number between 0 and 100. Whenever you change one line, you need to change the other as well. Just remember that the number in the second line is 100x the number in the first line.

Some ancient browsers use different methods to support opacity, but there is no need to worry about those browsers. If someone complains, tell them to upgrade to a browser written in this millennium!

Thank you Dion, but for some reason it's still not working.

What browser do you use?

I use firefox.

It should work.
Try this code. Add it to Admin CP > Display > Colors >CSS
Add it and then submit.

Code:

#wrap {
opacity : 0.8;
}
