Hello everyone,

Does anyone know how do i can place a background image in my store.
I thought it might be possible using CSS like
.bg_image {
BACKGROUND-image: url(http://www.eye-graphics-services.nl/sico-shop/skin1/images/bg.gif);
BACKGROUND-repeat: repeat;
}

But where should i place this code? In which template?

Thanks.

Try, customer/home.tpl

Need to make sure any refs to images are like this:
{$ImagesDir}/myimage.jpg

Otherwise you get security errors in https.

Your other option is to put the style in your skin1.css and call it from your template.

Thanks, that works just fine. You don't happen to know which template is responsable for the main area? I would like to change the colour of this area so de background image doe'nt show through.

You probably need to look at the body tag in the skin1.css file, (the 2nd body tag)
