    So far I am incredibly disappointed and frustrated with this product. First, I have a header image selected and all I see is a color. Second, my background image is tiled (and shows as such in the preview) but clearly is not showing this way on the site. If I click on "display header text" THEN the image appears but there is also a green bar (when there is no text inputted)...Please help me make this product functional or else I would like a refund asap. Thanks.

    Look for this CSS:

    .metro-green a.social-buttons:hover, .metro-green button:hover, .metro-green input[type="button"]:hover, .metro-green input[type="submit"]:hover, .metro-green .btn:hover, .metro-green .genesis-nav-menu .current-menu-item a, .metro-green .genesis-nav-menu li a:hover, .metro-green .genesis-nav-menu li:hover a, .metro-green .navigation li a:hover, .metro-green .navigation li.active a, .metro-green .post-comments a, .metro-green .sidebar .enews-widget input[type="submit"], .metro-green #title a {
        background-color: #21C250;
    }

    REMOVE .metro-green #title a from the last of the line and Save.

    For the background - it is generated with a javascript called Backstretch. In order to place an image in the background, you need to follow the instructions here - http://my.studiopress.com/setup/stretch-theme/.

    i did as you suggest and it changed nothing. please forgive me, however I don't understand why something that costs $80 does not work as its basic UI suggests it would without tweaking...

    I submitted a ticket on this to support. Either someone will post back here or I will if they respond to my email.

    Anthony,

    sorry for the trouble you are having. This is a bug in the theme and we are fixing it for the download. On issues like this feel free to contact support via my.studiopress.com. We work very hard to have a quick turn around on support issues. Right now our average first response is about 5 hours.

    I see that you have it working correctly on the site you linked to. For anyone else having this issue, please add this code to the style.css file. Exact placement isn't important, just make sure it is not inside the responsive section or inside another CSS rule set.

    .header-image #title a {
    	background: none !important;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    

    Again, very sorry for the frustration this has caused. If you need anything else remember you can drop us a note in help desk. The theme price includes the theme, support, and this amazing forum we maintain.

    Is this still bug still unresolved? I too am unable to use "tile" in the Metro theme. I will implement above changes, but curious about overall plans for this bug.
