To all you HTML gurus out there…
August 8, 2004 – 12:12 amwho read my blog…
and want to give me free advice…
If you are still reading, I’d like to put an image in that little box up there that says “Dwight::Knoll The “K” is not silent”… you know, kinda a background image… I can host it myself, but I’m to lazy to figure out how to do it…
If you wanna figure it out and tell me how… I’ll… uhh… buy you a beer next time I see you, and you are over 21.

Under your /*Header section it reads:
#header {
width:660px;
margin:0 auto 10px;
border:1px solid #468;
}
To add an image for a background, edit that to read:
#header {
width:660px;
margin:0 auto 10px;
border:1px solid #468;
background-image: url(background image url);
background-repeat: repeat;
}
Of course, paste your background link in the appropriate spot.
Hopefully this works. If not, get back to me and I’ll take another shot at it.
Take it easy.

how tall is the image supposed to be?

Whatever you’d like. But if you want it to be similar to the header you have now, I’d say around 100 pixels.

Photobucket allows remote hosting, for free to a certain amount, but don’t know that amount. I put my blogspot background images in my Photobucket. When you’re looking at your photobucket photos, there’s a few form areas under the image that give the urls in various linking formats. Paste the regular url into your blogspot code like Katy wrote.
Maybe flickr could remotely host the file also, but I haven’t figured them out completely yet. I did manage to do a photoblog to blogspot via flickr though. The background images are hosted at photobucket, while the blogged photos are at flickr.

Sorry, I’ve already got a host to hold the pictures… fotolog.com is great, they don’t have a limit for files uploaded, and the urls are easy to get. the only downside is that they shrink the pictures…
Soon I’m going to have my own webserver and won’t have to worry about a thing.
Flickr can’t host as far as I can tell, they use lots of javascript…

Yeah, one day I might get around to doing this, now that you helped me…
Get back to me when you turn 21 :-)
