Hi guys,

I learning this whole html/site construction as I go along...but one thing I would like to do is add texture to the background (the sides that are black on 2 and brown on one)

Take a look at my sites to see what I mean.

1. How do I do this?

2. where can I go to find textures?

or....

3. how do I make my own in gimp?

      do a google search for free web backgrounds. You're bound to find a ton of places where you can download textures. All for free

      there's also background generators you can use too.

      Now as far as implementing them in your WordPress theme, all that is required is a little CSS magic, and FTP'ing the background image into your themes image directory.


      in your theme's style.css you will need to just add something similar to this:

      Code:
      body { background: #000000 url(images/yourbackground.jpg) repeat; }
