I want to change the texture of all parts by background file.
I guess I have to put the following:

A. Is this correct ?
B. Where exactly in the style.css should I write it ?

Hello Danny,
When you would like to change the background of the entire page, you should edit the style.css file.
In the style.css file of the default template you can find
Code: Select all
body{margin:0; padding:0; background-image:url(images/bg.png); background-repeat:repeat-x; font-family:Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color:#003399;}
Change
Code: Select all
background-image:url(images/bg.png); background-repeat:repeat-x;
to what you would like. For more information about background image options you read the following page
http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_background.asp
When you would like the change the background of the messages only you must find the following line in the style.css file
Code: Select all
.gbook_commentbox{width:96%; height:auto; background-image:url(images/bg_comment_box.gif); background-repeat:repeat-x; background-color:#f9f9f9; margin:0 auto; border:solid 1px #CCCCCC; display: table; margin-bottom:20px;}
and change
Code: Select all
background-image:url(images/bg_comment_box.gif); background-repeat:repeat-x;
to what you would like for your background image. In the default template this background defines the blue line at the top of the message in which the texts 'Submitted by' and 'Comments:' are displayed.
Greetings,
Henrie

Thank Henrie,
I tried:
/*--------------------------------------------HEADER--------------------------------------------*/
body{margin:0; padding:0; background-image:url(dannygoldmancom.ipage.com/bg-02.jpg); background-repeat:repeat-x; font-family:Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; color:#003399;}
#gbook_header{width:600px; height:150px; margin:0 auto; background-image:url(images/book.png); background-repeat:no-repeat;}
unfortunately it does not work....

Please change
Code: Select all
background-image:url(dannygoldmancom.ipage.com/bg-02.jpg);
to
Code: Select all
background-image:url("http://dannygoldmancom.ipage.com/bg-02.jpg");
and refresh your browser page using CTRL + F5 to refesh it with clearing the browser cache to be sure it is not showing the old cached page.

Danny,
Please read the page I linked in my first reply
http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_background.asp
It gives info about background-repeat, and a link with more in depth information
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_back ... repeat.asp
Set background-repeat option to your desired working
Code: Select all
Value Description
repeat The background image will be repeated both vertically and horizontally. This is default
repeat-x The background image will be repeated only horizontally
repeat-y The background image will be repeated only vertically
no-repeat The background-image will not be repeated
initial Sets this property to its default value. Read about initial
inherit Inherits this property from its parent element. Read about inherit
I think your desired option would be
background-repeat:repeat;
Greetings,
Henrie

I have no idea what user portal you are talking about (there is none in GBook)? So i do not know how to help you.
