Hi!
I have a problem with recently purchased Boutique template - background image (the .png with words & graphic) is not showing, no matter what style I chose.
It's there in the folder, but it doesn't show.
Also, is there a way to change the file type to .jpg so it can be shown as a background, and if yes, where should I make that change.

And how/where do I change the color of the background that is currently white (between the blue top background and footer)

Thanks in advance

Hi,

it layout.css

this makes problems:

.big_header_bg {
background: #3CADD3 !important;
}

you have important tag , so your background definition is not taken at all.
Remove that.

Thanks, that was helpful and did the job :)

I (think) also found where I should put the color tag to change the white background between the background pic and footer, but there is a problem when I do that.

In /templates/hot_boutique/index.php

when I add the background color #6ec3ee after the word "bottom" in this line:

<div class="big_header_bg">
<div style="background:url(<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/hot_boutique/images/girl_bg.png) no repeat center bottom">

then the background changes, but the bg image disappears.

How can I keep the background image with waves + change the white background below it to #6ec3ee ?

Thanks in advance for your help

Wherever you have background:... put both definition for color and image:

background:#6ec3ee url(...

I've tried this and all other variations (also I changed background color in all files where it could be changed (index.html and others), still no results.
It either shows the background picture with white bottom or just #6ec3ee background without the background picture.
I need both the background picture + #6ec3ee background on the bottom.

Thanks in advance

Ok,

that should work , but you can also do this:
background-image:url(...
background-color:#...

So instead using background property try to use background-image and background-color properties.
