    I can’t get my custom background image to show up. Below is a copied snippet from my css file showing my latest attempt. Even though there is no background color specified below, I am still seeing the gray background of the default theme that I am using. Not sure where that’s coming from, but I suppose that it’s sitting on top of my customized image, therefore blocking it, maybe.

    body {
    	font-size: 62.5%; /* Resets 1em to 10px */
    	font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif;
    
    	background: url(images/bg2.gif) repeat left top;
    	color: #333;
    	text-align: center;
    	}

    Thanks.

    PS I think I have WP version 2.9.2 — but I can’t find the version number at the bottom (or top) of my admin pages. All I see is a notice asking me to “get 3.0.1.”

    I discovered that the background image was showing in IE but not in Firefox. It turned out that the Firefox cache was tenaciously holding onto the old background set-up and wouldn’t use the new. It worked in Firefox after I closed the browser, reopened it, then refreshed several times.
