delete the old plugin, and download and install the attachment from the opening post.

I tried to do what you said. But every time I downloaded it, it was a .bin file, not pbp. or whatever.

can you do a "right click", then "save target as"? you may need to do it on a reg. computer.

Thank you! I fixed it with your help!

I love the idea. However, if you use a border around forum then that comes across to the different background. Anyway to prevent that.

what border code are you using and can you elaborate?

[spiceelicious]

Sure, I use 3 different ones. But not all at once, as it depends on the background and what I am trying to go for.
I shall send them to you in a pm as one is only available on a forum I joined.

Ritchie, I installed 1.1.3 and it isn't working.

It seems to be... I don't know how to describe this.. It is only showing up in areas that are designated transparent areas for the original background. It isn't showing up at the top or fully at the bottom or the sides. Its' weird.

I have it set to no repeat as I do not want it to tile at all. It is a large image so it should just fill the background in a static manner. (1900x1200)

I am testing it at my test site here

trueblueliberydev.boards.net/

I was trying to have a different background for the Religion forum. I left the image as is in that forum so you can see what it is or is not doing.

This is the url to the image

If there is anything else you need to know, let me know.

Ritchie, sorry to bother you again on this.

I was looking more closely at that religion page and used IE as well as FF and what seems to be happening is that even though the image is large 1900x1200 (200kb), so that it can be a fixed background with no tiling. Once the image is added to the plug in, it is being shrunk and that is why it is not showing up at the sides or bottom and not showing as a background.

If you can get it to stop shrinking the image, I think it would work. Hope this helps.

Hi Ritchie. Yes its the right image and size. It seems photobucket is reducing the size. I didn't take that possibility into account. Any ideas on how to get around that? I really dislike tiled backgrounds. How does pboards do it for fixed backgrounds without tiling or repeating? Can you incorporate their method somehow? I'm at a loss how to get around this.

Ritchie, I dug around at photobucket and was able to change the size of how uploaded images are stored and linked.

So that is no longer a problem, yay, your plug in works!

I'm not sure what this means. I got it working. Is this for people that might not use an image hosting site and need to use attachment?

I really like this plug in and I use Peter's different banner plug in with it so that I can customize the logo to match each background.

Thanks for all the work you all put into the various plug ins.
