    Hello,

    Im trying to add a graphic to the top left of the content area of the page.  I have tried  adding this line in #content in CSS and under the landing page content below.  Neither work.  Can you tell me what Im doing wrong?  I want it to be in the background so I can add text over it.

    The page is http://everydayhealthylifestyles.com

    The theme is Prose

    .page-template-landing-php #content .page {
    padding: 10px 10px 0 10px;
    background: url('http://everydayhealthylifestyles.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/veggieslarge.png') top left no-repeat;
    }

    Thank you

    Janet

    Hi!
    I got it to work in a quick test! Your code above got a little butchered, but I think I see what happened... I think you have a different kind of single quote at the beginning of the long image path. Check that first. Could be a Mac vs. PC type of thing. I think you may have also had a semi-colon at the end of the image path. Anyhow, here's what I used:

    .page-template-landing-php #content .page {
    padding: 10px 10px 0 10px;
    background: url('http://everydayhealthylifestyles.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/veggieslarge.png') top left no-repeat;
    }
    

    Best, Dave

    Hello, I fixed it, added it to the wrapper area and it worked.  I did have to mess with the design feature in Genesis to get it to sit top left, but all is good.  Thank you!
