ughhhhhhhhhhhh

Code:

<style type="text/css"> /*Background Stuff*/ table, td .content { background:..000000; opacity:.5; /*the .85 means 85% opacity fyi */ } body{background-image:url("http://img389.imageshack.us/done.php?l=img389/5002/bg3tq.jpg"); background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat:repeat; *} /*Text Attributes*/ font, td, a, body, input, textarea, table{color:CC0000;font-family:arial;} body, td, li, p, div, textarea, li, h1, h2, p, br {font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; color: CC0000; font-weight: bold; } .btext {font-family: arial black; font-size: 8pt; color: CC6600; font-style: italic; } .blacktext10 {font-family: arial black; font-size: 8pt; color: 339900; text-decoration: underline; } .blacktext12 {font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; color: CC3366; } .lightbluetext8 {font-family: times new roman; font-size: 14pt; color: FF9900; } .nametext {font-family: impact; font-size: 16pt; color: 3366FF; font-weight: bold; } .orangetext15 {font-family: times new roman; font-size: 14pt; color: 3366CC; } .redbtext {font-family: arial; font-size: 8pt; color: 66CCCC; } .text {font-family: arial; font-size: 9pt; color: 339900; } .whitetext12 {font-family: arial; font-size: 8pt; color: CC6600; } /*Link Attributes*/ a:link, a.man:link, a.navbar:link, a.text:link {font-family: arial black; font-size: 10pt; color: EEEEEE; } a:hover, a.man:hover, a.navbar:hover, a.text:hover{font-family: arial black; font-size: 10pt; color: EEEEEE; } a:visited, a.man:visited, a.navbar:visited, a.text:visited {font-family: arial black; font-size: 10pt; color: DDDDDD; } /*Additional Features*/ body div table tbody tr td font {visibility:hidden;} .navbar {visibility:visible;} .navbar font {visibility:hidden;} table td div div font {visibility:hidden;} </style>

The point of that was to make semi-transparent windows for my myspace, because the bg is really busy and there's no solid color that looks cool. The background won't load...and everything is semi-transparent.

any suggestions?

Code:

<style type="text/css"> body{background-image:url("http://img389.imageshack.us/done.php?l=img389/5002/bg3tq.jpg"); background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat:repeat; *} font, td, a, body, input, textarea, table{color:CC0000;font-family:arial;} body, td, li, p, div, textarea, li, h1, h2, p, br {font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; color: CC0000; font-weight: bold; } .btext {font-family: arial black; font-size: 8pt; color: CC6600; font-style: italic; } .blacktext10 {font-family: arial black; font-size: 8pt; color: 339900; text-decoration: underline; } .blacktext12 {font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; color: CC3366; } .lightbluetext8 {font-family: times new roman; font-size: 14pt; color: FF9900; } .nametext {font-family: impact; font-size: 16pt; color: 3366FF; font-weight: bold; } .orangetext15 {font-family: times new roman; font-size: 14pt; color: 3366CC; } .redbtext {font-family: arial; font-size: 8pt; color: 66CCCC; } .text {font-family: arial; font-size: 9pt; color: 339900; } .whitetext12 {font-family: arial; font-size: 8pt; color: CC6600; } /*Link Attributes*/ a:link, a.man:link, a.navbar:link, a.text:link {font-family: arial black; font-size: 10pt; color: EEEEEE; } a:hover, a.man:hover, a.navbar:hover, a.text:hover{font-family: arial black; font-size: 10pt; color: EEEEEE; } a:visited, a.man:visited, a.navbar:visited, a.text:visited {font-family: arial black; font-size: 10pt; color: DDDDDD; } div table tbody tr td font {visibility:hidden;} .navbar {visibility:visible;} .navbar font {visibility:hidden;} table td div div font {visibility:hidden;} table, td .content { background:..000000; opacity:.5; } </style>

Try that. I weeded out some of the crap you don't need too. It may work, or it may not. It's a clusterfsck of a style sheet.

i'm trying it now, let's hope it works...

use http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/5002/bg3tq.jpg instead of the background url 43 gave. this one is the direct link to the image. it should work now.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> *<title><$BlogPageTitle$></title> *<$BlogMetaData$> *<style type="text/css"> /* ----------------------------------------------- Blogger Template Style Name: * * Minima Black Designer: Douglas Bowman URL: * * *www.stopdesign.com Date: * * 26 Feb 2004 ----------------------------------------------- */ } body{background-image:url("http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/5002/bg3tq.jpg"); background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat:repeat; *} a:link { *color:#9ad; *text-decoration:none; *} a:visited { *color:#a7a; *text-decoration:none; *} a:hover { *color:#ad9; *text-decoration:underline; *} a img { *border-width:0; *}

I just decided to screw myspace because it's horrendously gay...so 43 helped me and i signed up for blogger.com

My only problem is, why doesn't the background image work?

i need a link to your site so i can see what it looks like.
