I used one of the backgrounds that are provided here. Its a Twilight one. When i first click to look at my profile the background shows up but then turns black. How can i fix that? I like the background it comes with. Thanks for the help.

That's strange. I looked at your codes and tried them on my page but they looked fine. It may be some other code that you have on your page that I couldn't find. Do you mind posting all the ones you're using?

When i preview it, it looks fine. But once i save it and look at the profile that's what happens.
Mickey
There's nothing wrong with your codes. I tried them again on my page and the background worked fine. Maybe you set a black background for your page using the new Profile Themes option that Tom added or something. That's the only thing I can think of.

Click on the Edit Profile link on your Home page. Click on Profile Themes under the Account Settings link. Your page should come up with a sidebar on the left. On the top of that sidebar, click on the Edit Theme tab. See if you have a set background on there.
leylyvences
Ok thanks for all your help. I think that is the problem. But i can't get rid of the black background. Do you know how i can do it?

Have you tried that?
leylyvences
Yeah i did what you suggested. I can change the color of the background but for some reason i can't take it away. I don't know how to.
Mikeplyts
Then it must be something with your computer because it looks fine to me. shrug.gif
leylyvences
Maybe. Thanks.
