currently adding content atm

Is there not an option to add a background image through the dashboard?

yeah just done it, but the actual post content is also the photo. have a look again and you’ll see what i mean, its sort of an all or nothing situation

Sorry I can’t see your background image https://awesomescreenshot.com/08a1kipe5a

thats wierd,it shows up when i’m logged in, but not when i’m logged out. no ida whats going on there

No matter, I can replicate the background image using chrome’s developer tools.

Does your theme come with a section of the dashboard to hold CSS modifications (other than directly in theme files)?

yes it does, it has a section called css editor for changes that are added over the top of the original theme file

In that section add this:

.wrap {
 background: #eee;
}

oh sweet. is there any way to change its width?

Yep add a ‘max-width‘ CSS style to it:

.wrap {
 background: #eee;
 max-width: 940px;
}

The ‘940‘ value is what it is at now.

you guys are sick, got it all working bar one thing, the images on the slider and at the top of each post no longer line up. Is there anyway to get them all to readjust their size?

I know this isn’t my thread, but thanks for this! It really helped me out.

Two quick questions, though.

1. What can I add to keep the header from being included in this?
2. In my footer, one of my widgets is sticking out. How can I fix that?

Thanks!

ETA: Ah! One more question, is it possible to add a drop shadow?
