Admin Forum:Templates using picture for backgrounds

A fellow user on Megami Tensei Wiki was wondering if it is possible to use an image as the background for a template/table to be used on the wiki. But neither of us have seen a template that does something like this on other wikis. We were wondering if anyone knew whether or not it was possible? Message 18:25, June 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * That's actually fairly common. For instance, Dragon Age Wiki uses background images in its infoboxes (example), and so does the Fallout Wiki (example). To add a background image to a template, you need to edit the MediaWiki:Common.css or MediaWiki:Wikia.css on your wiki, and you need to understand how the background CSS property works. --Gardimuer { ʈalk } 03:15, June 13, 2012 (UTC)
