Putting a Background on Your Page The first thing you will need to do is get the background uploaded to your server. If you created the background yourself, then it's already on your hard drive and you merely upload the image file the same way you upload all your files with your server. If you don't already have the background on your hard drive, then you'll need to download the file. To download a background image from an internet page to a PC, right-click with your mouse pointer over the background of your choice, then choose "Save Background As..." and save to your hard drive. If you are using a MAC, click-HOLD when you are over the image of your choice, then save to your hard drive. If you are a webtv user, there is a free upload utility service at Star Boulevard Transload Service. Please - do not directly link to any page for any images you use unless you have express permission from the webmaster or owner of the page Do not forget about copyright laws. It is strictly against the law to use any image without permission of the copyright holder. Enchantress.net has statements throughout the web site to inform visitors which graphics sections are available *free* for use, which means you will not be in violation of the copyright by using the graphics in sections outlined as "free" unless you offer one or more of the images to others, whether for free or for fee. The graphics in enchantress.net may not be offered to others by any person or individual without express written permission of TWC Graphics Design. Here is how you get the background image onto your web page after you've uploaded it to your server:
The following code goes directly after the </head> command on your page. Copy below by highlighting, then use your browser's "copy" function. Use your HTML editor to paste into your document------------------>
The words "file.ext" above should be replaced with the actual file name of the background you are using (the quotation marks should remain around the filename), and you must also upload the background file to your server in the same directory as the page using the background for this code to work. The "bgcolor" sets the base background color that appears underneath the background; this will appear first, then will not show at all unless you are using tables with borders. The color "#FFFFFF" is white. The "text" sets the base color for text in your document; the color "#000000" is black.
