Hello,

And a happy new year to all!

I wondered how to make a background like here: http://www.edit-studios.com/

Is it tiled? But how?

Thank you for your help.

I didn't look at the CSS, but what appears to be happening is this image is the background, and all of the content is layered over it. I don't think anything special is going on here.

Do you think the idea is to have a wide enough background image so as to avoid tiling and make the right side and bottom of the image the same color as the background color?

Here is the code from the stylesheet:

#mainnav_wrap {
text-align:center;
width:100%;
height:43px;
background-image: url(../images/nav_bgnd_rpt.png);
background-position: 0px 0px;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
position:absolute;
top:0px;
left:0px;
overflow:hidden;
z-index:1000;

display:block;
}

The image is repeating horizontally only. It looks like they faded it to black to avoid a hard tiled edge.
