I used the html main background code from the master code list and it worked fine in our guild staging area, but doesn't seem to work in the fairgrounds.

Is there another code I should use instead?

I see your code is on the bottom. Try placing it on top.

I just tried that and am not seeing the pictures.

If you're referring to your thread "Magic Mushroom", I tried to open the direct link of the background pic's URL, and "the connection was refused" by imageshack. Perhaps you should check on that end?

There's not a different code to use depending on where the thread is. If you've edited the topic, make sure the "Enable HTML" option is checked before you hit the Submit button. Apart from an issue with the image itself, that's all I can think of.

I tried copying the same code from my cottage then adding the image, and it works now.

lol glad you got it
