Background suggestions

I'm not the best with backgrounds. Someone help me please, the forum looks hideous

Would you like a solid color background or a background image? If you don't like grey you can try a darker white maybe?

Seems a little better, but eh. I'm not really looking for a solid color, more of a dark white, or dark grey with some images on it. 

Something like these two forums backgrounds

@Forumedic

So you would like a pattern background that repeats?

Also, to tag someone you do not need to add a URL link, just the @ sign and the username: @Forumedic, all should be blue including the @. For usernames with spaces add quotation marks around the username.

Example:

Code:

@"Example Example"

Yes, one that repeats, and how do I make the background of where my banner is transparent? I want to take out the grey background. @forumedic

What is your forum version?

It's phpBB

phpBB3 or phpBB2?

Sorry, it's phpBB2

Code:

.bodyline{
background: transparent !important;
}

It worked, but it removed some parts of the forum I wanted to keep. Is there anyway we can fix this?



This is how it looked before.



And this is where i'd like to keep the solid color of the forum at if that makes sense.

The code I gave changed the background to transparent that's why. Not sure how to have 1 background at top transparent and the other a solid color but I'm sure someone will be able to help.

The best coder I know for forumotions is Ange

If you tag him he will get a notification and will see this topic.

I came to a solution to fix the problem already, is there a code to make fixed backgrounds stop repeating? @forumedic

Does this work?

Code:

body {
    background-image: url("Image link");
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

Something weird happened, the background picture isn't fully expanding. @forumedic
