Forum:Uploading an image as a Wiki's background

I recently adopted a wiki, and I'm trying to upload an image background. I tried uploading a file to background.jpg, but apparently it doesn't work the same way as the logo or favicon, and I have to edit the CSS or something like that (which I don't know how to do yet.) Could someone give me some quick tips on how to do this?--DZ987 03:56, 27 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Upload the background image and use the following in your MediaWiki:Monaco.css:

} .color2 { background: url('URL_TO_YOUR_IMAGE'); }

 * Dont forget to tell him how to get the correct full URL of the uploaded image.
 * On the image page after upload, there's a small text link just under the image "See full size" of something. Or, it could be written "no higher res"... Anyway, clicking the image (or the link) should make the page been replace in the browser by the image. And the URL in the browser will change. Copy it. It's the URL you need to put in the CSS file. — TulipVorlax 07:47, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

I tried all that, but it's still not working. The MediaWiki page looks like this--DZ987 14:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
