Hey Melissa,
I have a blog question for you. How did you get your background for your blog page? I want like a black and white damask print background or something old and vintage looking. Did you find a code online? Where do you upload the background?
Thanks!
Kristina

I'm not Melissa either, but thanks for that rec, munki.
I've been looking for a new BG/theme and checked out the cutest blog on the block. Really cute templates, and easy to use. Thanks!!
Nice new layouts girls! Very cute
What Munkii said.
I had to play around with it for a while and use the 'minima' template in order for it to show the whole background and not the sides. I'll have to check out some of those other sites that were suggested and maybe find one I like better.
Cipolla, I was having a similar problem. I actually had to do some resizing. If you look at my blog, I've expanded the minima template a little bit, and I'm using a 3 column background to allow more space.
If you go into your blog layout and edit html, scroll down until you see #header-wrapper. I changed mine to the following - you might just tinker around with it, til it works for you.
#header-wrapper {
width:900px;
margin:0 auto 10px;
border:1px solid $bordercolor;
}
Then scroll down to #outer-wrapper. Here is what I set mine to:
#outer-wrapper {
width: 900px;
margin:0 auto;
padding:10px;
text-align:$startSide;
font: $bodyfont;
}
#main-wrapper {
width: 654px;
float: $startSide;
word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */
overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float */
}
#sidebar-wrapper {
width: 215px;
float: $endSide;
word-wrap: break-word; /* fix for long text breaking sidebar float in IE */
overflow: hidden; /* fix for long non-text content breaking IE sidebar float */
}
I think that's all I changed to get mine to work so I could post extra large pictures. Try that.
