Can't see background image when I change it! Empty Can't see background image when I change it!

Post by Crimson_09 June 5th 2009, 3:59 am

When I change my background image I cant see it when I preview my forum, but I can see the logo that I uploaded. I tried another template and I still couldnt see it, but I could still see my logo. I can see the background image after I save it (The screen showing you what picture is being used for a certain part of the forum), but that's the only time.

Im not using servimg.com because for some reason it converted one of my .png files to a .jpg. I decided to use Image Aim to host the pictures and the logo (png) works now, but the background can't be seen. So I uploaded the background image to photobucket and I still cant see it when I preview. And I used the direct link to image links when i tried it with Photobucket and Image Aim.

Can anyone help? I saw that someone else had this problem but no one ever found out how to fix it.


Thanks Dawa

Nope. Didn't work. I even deleted the text in all of the grey color boxes and saved and the background is still grey and not the image I saved to be the background.

So many problems! rambo

You probably need to change it in the CSS sheet I had the same issue it is probably locked by the skin you are using on your forum. Look for for background images.

Hey again Crimson.
Its strange among so many users of forummotion, that nobydy seems to know how to solve this "LITTEL" problem. ????
I used a hitskin but I cant get reed of the original background image. So maybe this is just a mistake in the free software code ??? Naa i hope there must be a solution on this problem ? otherwise the hitskins sre kind of useless if you want to create Your own logo!

and Swos you mention the CCS sheet, where exactly in the admin panel can we change those data ?

You need to be in advanced mode then go to display/colors/css stylesheet

You may need to click on "see your forum basic css" and then cut and paste the text into the white box. If you do ctrl F and then search for "background-image: url" its in the body{ section and see what it is set to I would imagine it is set to the original background file from the skin that you used initially for your forum if you change that to the image you want and then click submit it should change the background image.

Be careful in the css stylesheet as changes can change your forum drastically.

well just to correct myself before doing any mistakes i will specify for you that im talking about the top logo not the bagground, But it seems to that even the toplogo have a logo bagground as standard as well.

You can see what i mean if You watch my forum: www.taasti.niceboard.org

The top logo picture is very big and have name (Stand) and a www. url that i dont want ofcourse.
This is the picure/bagground i want to get reed off.

So is your last suggestion still actuel for solving this problem ?

thanks for Your effort island guy Hello
