Background Image
I`ve followed all the instructions in the previous posts:
My background image (a `GIF`) has been uploaded to the `site` part of the images file;
I`ve checked and re-checked the image path, and it does match the image`s name;
The CGIGET script is present;
The `use background image` box has `YES` in it.
I wondered if my image was too large (in pixels) and so I tried a shrunken version of 640 x 480, but that didn`t work. I also tried using a product image that works elsewhere on the site, but no luck! Changing the colour of the background works, but not displaying my image ...
What have I done/not done? Help, please!

Re: Background Image
Please post your URL. In the mean time, post the CGIGET command you used to find out if you used it correctly.
As an alternative, since it seems you have uploaded from the admin section, try uploading your images from the FTP to see if it makes a difference. If it does, it would simply be permissions issue to correct.

Re: Background Image
My URL is: wwwall-hand-made.co.uk/ccp51/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi
(If you want to see the actual background I want to use, leave off all the ccp51 bit of the above address).
(CGIGET TYPE="SUB" VALUE="ste_exec_bodytag")
Tha above script hasn`t been touched. I can`t upload the image with ftp, as I don`t have one.
Any ideas?

Do you have a web panel ? If so, upload your bgimage through there (/media/site folder). Then, replace the FFFFFF color with in your HTML settings. That should give it a go to your bgimage.
Also, I have noticed that your title images are too small. You might want to re-configure your global settings, HTML settings in your admin section.

Re: Background Image
Web panel? Do you mean my host`s control panel? Sorry to be dim, but I`m still new to all this ..... I did try replacing FFFFFF with "", to see what happened and the background went black. You`re right about the title image being too small, I just haven`t got to that yet!
I was using CCP`s File Utility feature to upload all my images. The others all work fine (product photos of assorted sizes, the banner, trial titles etc) It`s only the background image that doesn`t work.
More help, please!
