Does anyone know anything about the Tumblr HTML codes? I'm trying to change the background from a solid color to a .jpg picture and can't figure it out.

Question

anonymous · Answer

hmm you have to change the css

anonymous · Answer

or using this in html (if the image exist in the same folder) (if image is in another folder)

anonymous · Answer

I'm not actually any good with coding like this. This is what the HTML code says now: body { font: 12px/1.5em Futura, 'Century Gothic', AppleGothic, sans-serif; color: #1500ff; background: #41eb93; margin: 15px 0px; } I want to change 'background: #41eb93;' so that instead of the color, the background is this picture: http://a.wattpad.com/userbg/sebstan.71591.jpg (And don't judge me for that picture.)

Yeah, yeah, hysterical. It's attractive, I don't care what anyone says. I just really need to figure this stupid crap out. I've been working on it for the past two hours, but it's just not working.

It's fine. I haven't slept for almost 24 hours, so I'm a bit cranky.

body {
	font: 12px/1.5em Futura, 'Century Gothic', AppleGothic, sans-serif;
	color: #1500ff;
	background-image:url("give the image name with extension");
	margin: 15px 0px;
}

anonymous · Answer

ok bro

anonymous · Answer

Okay, what do you mean by extension?

anonymous · Answer

extension is .jpg .png .gif .bmp etc

anonymous · Answer

extension is basically encoding algorithm.

anonymous · Answer

Okay, I'm probably getting annoying now, but it's still not working.

anonymous · Answer

hmm show me what you did?

anonymous · Answer

I changed the original background thing to this: background-image:urlsebstan.71591.jpg

That's the only thing that ended with an extension.

anonymous · Answer

background-image:url("sebstan.71591.jpg");

anonymous · Answer

get the syntax right :P

anonymous · Answer

It still didn't work and I copy and pasted it directly from here.

anonymous · Answer
