    hi all,

    I'm using Crystal theme as is, no further modification done. Does anyone know how i can add background images to the theme?

    The background images i choose will be 'greyed out' or 'toned down'.

    The images also need to change when viewing posts or pages. However, if this is not possible, it's ok to just stick to one image.

    i'm doing it on local so i can't show any sample yet, but it's very similar to SP's demo website.
