I am a huge fan of Ata, and have been working with it for quite some time! Recently, I changed my permalink structure in WP to 'postname' extensions as opposed to the 'default' number values, and suddenly my background image is not showing up on any of the pages aside from the Home page. Did I break something?

Home page: http://save-a-mother.org/ (background image of red/blue showing)
About page: http://save-a-mother.org/about/ (background image of red/blue NOT showing)

I have the following CSS in Body, Text & Links option:

font-family: tahoma, arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.8em;
color: #000000;
background-color: #fbefe0;
background-image: url("wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/SAM_top.gif");
background-repeat:repeat-x;
background-position:top;

Are there additional changes I am supposed to make? I found it interesting that the background image worked just fine with 'Default' permalinks, but stopped working after I switched to 'postname'

Thanks in advance for your help - this is for great cause! If there is a thread where this problem has been addressed, please send me a link :)

for the url, put in the full path, ie http://yourdomain.com/wordpress....

I am fairly new to Atahualpa - fairly old in all other respects, but a long-time techie. What a great theme, BUT I can't get a background image to show (unless my browser refuses to reload - someone should address a non-cache browser).
Under ATO>Body, Text, and Links, I have"

font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 0.9em;
color: #000000;
background: url(http://www.normanspreciousmetalrefin...background.gif) repeat top left;

my site is www.normanspreciousmetalrefiners.com, and I have tested the path to the image.

What happens if you use

background: url (/wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/background.gif) repeat top left;

in that area or as I look at your cod again maybe just a space between background: and url.

add HTTP:// to the befining of the address you have 'url(www.......' make it 'url(http://www.....'

Thanks - that should help

Thanks, Juggledad - that did it! Happy to donate. All the best, John
