I looked up the how to on changing the background image of the sidebar. I followed the instructions but the image is showing up on other parts of my page as well, not just the sidebar. Does anyone know how to fix this, please?

Thanks and Happy Holidays to everyone.

Add these lines:
.layout-wt #content-inner {
background-color: #ffffff;
background-image: url('http://s200.photobucket.com/albums/aa271/cherryteresa/backgrounds/th_cherryblossom-background.png');
background-repeat: repeat-y;
background-position: top right;
}

Unfortunately, your image is too narrow for your sidebar, so you'll have to change it to 190px wide.

Thank you, it worked! I just ended up using another image I liked better for the background.

That works too, but you're welcome!
So, where in Baltimore?

Your code still helped me so that it didn't go all over the page. =) And plus you helped me realize the width of the sidebar was 190, so that helped in making the new image. So thank you, thank you!

I live on the city/county line of Mt. Washington/Pikesville. You?
