It's most likely because you have the wrappers and the footers, they override the image to fit to the dimensions of the CSS.

I changed the body, and it allows the image to be shown. Its just a border around the main white box in the middle. So, when I went to mess with the width in the wrapper, it now stretched it really long, the whole page. So, perhaps its something with the footer? or perhaps the footer and the wrapper, still?

That or it may be trying to fill in the header or part of the container. You have to be careful which section you edit.

yeah. I played around with the layout when I owned a myadopts website. This seems similar, but It just isn't working. lol. Could I post what I have as an attachment?

Sure, but I'm not too experienced with any type of coding. I'm trying the best I can to help, but before getting Clessidra's website up and running, http://aristocracyalive.x10.mx , I had absolutely no prior HTML/CSS/PHP coding experience. So, everything I've been trying to help you with is based off of my own experiences.

lol, thanks for helping though. This is overwhelming, and sometimes simple mistakes are caught if others help. I'm very new to coding too. The only code I know a little is css, and apparently that is hard too.

Try adding this to your body in CSS;

background-size: 100%;


If that doesn't work, add this to the top of your HTML in the body,

<div style='position:absolute;z-index:0;left:0;top:0;width:100%;height:100%'>
<img src='http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm215/superdude44/background-1_zps837ef0a5.png' style='width:100%;height:100%' alt='[]' />
</div>


Lemme know how it goes.

thank you so much! the first one worked.

Not a problem! I try to help when I can, but it gets a little tough since I'm a beginner. I do what I can!
