Uncentered background on widescreens

  • Hi there, I’ve designed this site using sandbox and the cssEdit software for Mac. On my macbook the the logo looks centered and the background covers the whole area. However, on a widescreen laptop the there is a whole section left blank (not covered by the background image) and the logo is no longer centred. I’m a bit of a css novice, so any pointers are very welcome.

    Also, I think there is a big browser compatibility problem going on here – but I’ll deal with that later. All help greatly appreciated!

  • Why use a 14000 x 1000 plain black image as a background?

    Try changing:

    html {
background:transparent url(https://www.radio.whateverhappened2tv.tv/wp-content/background/8.jpg) repeat  -165px -35px;
position:relative;
}

    to

    html {background-color:#000;}

    The background isn’t black? Or, rather, it shouldn’t appear black, it’s a deep blue pattern. Is this no appearing on your browser? Is this true for others as well?

    Some of us need a little thing called “sleep”. Also, keep in mind that not everyone here will be in the same time zone as you.

    I checked the background image by itself in Firefox 3 and it definitely just looks like plain black (or almost black). Even if it is a pattened background, it should be possible to reduce it down to a tileable image.
